FREDDY 'Golden Boy" FULLER.
From 1963 to 1970, Fuller was
one of the best BC Boxers to
compete in British Columbia
and other places including
Seattle and Edmonton, Alberta.
And, was one of the boxers in
demand at the Seattle Golden Gloves.
In the photo about the 1968
Seattle Golden Gloves and
Pacific Northwest AAU
Championships it mentions
the 18 other BC boxers but
at the end of the two day
tournament FULLER won the day.
From the 1963 and 1965 headlines, it was only the beginning
but Vancouver's FREDDY FULLER proved his worth and walked
the "Road of Excellence" as the Jr. BC Golden Boy in 1963
and was named open senior BC GOLDEN BOY in 1965 and
cemented the special recognition from an outstanding victory
over the experienced veteran BUDDY PALMER in '65.
But, that was only the beginning as action would continue into 1970
when he appeared and won in the 1970 BC Golden Gloves which was
for the first time hosted by the British Columbia Amateur Boxing
Association (now called BOXING BC)
