Boxer Chris Finnegan is happy to be on the receiving end for once
Boxer Chris Finnegan is happy to be on the receiving end for once. For that is actress Julie Ege, a knock-out by any standards, giving him the treatment. The Lavender Hill Mob-a group of boxers who train at a pub in Lavender Hill London chose Julie as their president. And yesterday she turned up at a training session. She found Chris, a dual champion, getting into shape for a fight next week. Being in good shape herself, she tended the champ between rounds, showing him the ropes. A sure way, you may think, for a boxer to warn up for a fight. April 1972 P

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from April 1972, we see the renowned boxer Chris Finnegan experiencing a rare moment of delight as he finds himself on the receiving end for once. Standing before him is none other than the stunning actress Julie Ege, who exudes knockout beauty by any standards. The Lavender Hill Mob, a group of boxers known to train at a pub in London's Lavender Hill, have chosen Julie as their president. And on this particular day, she surprises them all by showing up at one of their training sessions. As Chris prepares for an upcoming fight next week, he discovers that Julie is not only easy on the eyes but also possesses an impressive knowledge of boxing techniques. With her own physique in excellent shape, she takes it upon herself to tend to the dual champion between rounds and show him some valuable tricks of the trade. It seems like an unconventional way for a boxer to warm up before a fight; however, with Julie's guidance and expertise, Chris undoubtedly gains an advantage. This snapshot captures both the unexpected camaraderie between two seemingly different worlds – boxing and acting – as well as showcasing how individuals from various backgrounds can come together through shared passions. The image freezes this unique moment in time when sport meets glamour and tradition intertwines with modernity.
