Seems like you throw around these epiteths way too much. I never even heard of him... I agree with your sentiment here, he was Frank Warren's right hand man, an the man behind the unmemorable Warren cards of recent years. RIP and all that but to call him a legend is way over the top.

gavpowell Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Re: Sad news as British Boxing learns legend Dean Powell is dead Weird, I swear I posted the second reply in this thread yet I don't see it. To try again: I am of course sorry when anyone dies, but I can't say I ever cared for the man, since he seemed to be the one responsible for putting together Frank's cards full of shit, keeping talented fighters wasting their time on mediocre to poor opposition and generally working against the interests of the fans. I hope he didn't suffer and that his loved ones will be ok, but I'd be lying if I said I'll miss him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skav Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Re: Sad news as British Boxing learns legend Dean Powell is dead He jumped in front of a train from what I read and that the big hold up in London was because of Dean's actions. Of course, this is only speculation. RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
