RIP Ron Foley

[diehard]

Sham didn't believe half of what he said. He was a stirrer--and a great forum sparring partner. At his request, I visited his son when I was on the Sunshine Coast years ago, as he had a gym there. He was one of the few amateurs who beat Tua, and according to Sham, they talk about it with David when they get together. He also trained Tua's nephew when Sham had his gym in panmure. Said he was a special talent.

I'll miss Sham heaps. He was one of the good ones. We've been friends for 20 years.
