Rollerball Rocco v Joel De Fremery (Southport 29/8/1981)

Sorry for the poor audio.
Will the presence of dad, Jumpin Jim Hussey, help Rocco to claim the full rights to the World Heavy Middleweight title ?

What does Kent say about Joel de Fremery's status as defending champion? He was supposed to be FFCP champion coming into the match. I know Rocco was recognised as Mountevans champion by default after Sammy Lee couldn't make Wembley due to family bereavement and this was a sort of unification match.

I wish someone had a copy of this with good picture & audio on it (I do, of course understand it is from the original TV taping)

Thanks for uploading, nice match. Beautiful scoop piledriver at the end by Rocco, he was super athletic.

Glad you enjoyed it

any chance of a video of jim hussey wrestling

[@psxgunman]

I've never seen any so unless there is some old black and white stuff out there or in the archives its unlikely at the present

@@psxgunman There's some footage of him in against Les Kellett in the 1967 docu The Wrestlers which is on KZbin somewhere . Otherwise we'll have to wait until some day someone gets the Granada TV 16mm b/w film print archive sorted and catalogued like the ITV Sport colour VT archive is - and probably get a slot similar to WOS on TWC to get the matches out there.
