Hi NZ Boxing followers, as some of you may be aware Chris Kenny passed away yesterday. I would like to set up this thread for people to say their bit, and I will be taking it down to the funeral in Wellington later this week.
Chris was a hard working top bloke who did his bit for NZ Amateur Boxing. He was the National Coach for a number of years and a well respected mentor to many past NZ Champions, including his son Michael, whom I had the privilege of representing NZ along side at the 1990 Commonwealth Games where Mike won Gold in the Superheavyweight division.
RIP Chris.
