Blois, Loir-et-Cher, France
Guenter Huber 4 20 0 L KO 4/8 Gilbert Chapron 10 0 0
Well back to the fight that got me side tracked momentarily to the Jean Huiban / Ray Cillien encounter. Not much accounted for on this fight from Charlie Parish. Chapron was coming into this undefeated thus far in the cruiser ranks around France. He takes down Huber who showing to be a game fighter out of Germany but without much success. I mentioned in the previous post that I'd rated both of these fighters back in the early days. I had Huber as Hans Gunter Huber. As explained think he was mixed up with Olympian heavyweight Hans Huber. Even though BoxRec and other things I found online have Huber's first name spelled Guenter, apparently birth name, I'm sticking with Gunter as that is what I've found in some accounts of his fights in Ring and Boxing News I have. His ring name for whatever reason. I've updated both ratings some and the usual data and bio stuff that I could pick up.
