I can remember watching this in the build up to the fight with Jim Watt. The Circuit Training is the bit i remember. I was an Amateur Boxer at the time and used to love watching top class boxers train. No TH-cam then. Nice to see it again.
As a professional Nash won the British and then European lightweight titles by fights arranged in the wake of abandoned vacant titles. The titles were left vacant by Jim Watt, whom many saw as running scared of Nash and it wasn't until 1980 that Nash finally got the chance to fight Watt - this time for the World Boxing Council lightweight title. The death of his manager Jack Solomon very close to the bout almost caused the fight to be called off, however, Nash found a new manager in Mickey Duff. This enabled the match to go ahead. Nash lost the match, and was bitterly disappointed.
I’m sorry Charlie you did not own the sportsman You rented it of Anthony O Sullivan who owned the bar since 1968 God Rest Him and the Bar remains in the family until this Day so sorry to bust your bubble Charlie
Yes, it was originally called Derry, then during the plantations much of the population was supplanted by people from London. And from then it was called Londonderry
Pretty wild the way he shook of the crime of Bloody Sunday, just shook it off 'as one of those things'. It's funny how the mind work. I actually spoke to a British paratrooper who was there at the time, and it's terrible, but fearing for their lives they panicked and shot wildly. And as others shot, others joined in and sadly 14 people died as a result of this. He has been suffering from PTSD ever since and won't go to any city because he gets in to panic attacks 50 years later. I didn't ask him, but he seemed deeply remorceful and angry at the army. (I spoke to him because I worked for a charity who supported people in difficulties.)
Thanks for the Disneyland version of Bloody Sunday. Did the same crew also "fear for their lives" when they went on the slaughter in Ballymurphy a few weeks earlier? Shut yer yap.
Get your facts correct the only people that used violence that day was the soldiers, the British media have spent decades covering up the full facts of what happened that day.
Harry Carpenter, narrating, the best boxing commentator.

Was Charlie Nash the inspiration for Daniel Day Lewis's character in the film the Boxer?

Is Gerry Taggart dubbing his voice?
7:14 remeber them clocks at PE in school.Could have done boxing aswell but it was an option
Please don't interpolated the footage, it looks weird and the source material is clearly film, which doesn't run anywhere near close to 50 FPS.
If you’re ever in Creggan, mind your business and keep driving.
Or get jumped by a bunch of subcontinentals?
*Creggan
edited and noted. I should know as I lived in Ballymagroarty 37 years ago. Thanks for the correction.@@sratus
Be known as little Africa soon so pipe down
Lol what? Tourists walk about Creggan every day. Are you an "Irish American" by any chance?
04:13.Thats a grim selection and the decor doesn't help. Troubles indeed.
The suspense is killing me... did he win?
No. Jim Watt stopped him in the 4th round. You can watch the fight on TH-cam.
was locally called "the Charlie Nash sandwich" 4 rounds with nothing in it.
Hehe

There is only Derry.
Good Friday agreement allows you to choose how you want to call it now. My family would always say Derry.
@@memofromessex Gerry Anderson called it Stroke City.

"fearing for their lives" at a peaceful protest, really now? Go do some fact checking!

@brumylee stay out of this.
You can say Derry or Londonderry; the good Friday agreement made that clear.

I assume this isn't the Charlie Nash who got killed by M. Bison...
Why assume a quick Google search would have told you he's 72 enjoying retirement.🤔
nah i'm pretty sure it's the same dude
Jim Watt stopped him in that up and coming fight .🥊🇬🇧
Thanks for that piece of insider boxing knowledge that no-one else knew
A rare win for a Scottish boxer.
They looked like they had sticks for arms..
