Scott Welsh is one of the most popular and richest Football Player who was born on April 21, 1968 in Adelaide, South Australia, Australia. Scott Welch (born 21 April 1968) is a retired British professional boxer. When he was an amateur Welch was one of British ABA Heavyweight Champions. He travelled around the globe as an professional fighter, taking home his Southern Area belt, the British, Commonwealth and WBO Intercontinental titles.
In Guy Ritchie’s film with bare-knuckles Snatch (2000) Welch played Horace “Good Night’ Anderson. The fight scene he fought in with Brad Pitt has achieved notoriety as he famously sent Pitt into the sky after being knocked out. Welch is taking his fame as an actor with a large grain to his salt “A film star lifestyle would be great if I hadn’t done anything in my life, but I’m very pleased with what I’ve achieved. I’ve had my career. My career was boxing.”
Welch moved to Brighton when he was 16 and found it “a massive wow factor after Yarmouth.” At 86 kg (190 lb), he was too big to find a match on the amateur circuit. It took a couple more years, and some intensive coaching at the Hove ABC (Amateur Boxing Club) under Dave Brown, before his amateur career started. Over the next few years, Welch racked up an impressive amateur record of 30 wins against 8 defeats (5 of which he later reversed), culminating in the ABA Heavyweight title of Great Britain in May 1992. “In amateur boxing, every fight was a tough fight as we were all so well matched,” Welch remembers.
In 1997, he contended the WBO World Title fight in Nashville, losing to Henry Akinwande by a wide points margin. In the course of his career Welch had 26 professional fights, with 22 wins and an impressive 17 knock-outs.
Following his exit in 1999 Welch has been working alongside his former coach, Dave Brown, as head trainer at the Brighton and Hove ABC.
