Historic city boxing ring set to be hooked up at museum
THE boxing ring where Edinburgh-born world champion Ken Buchanan threw his first punch is set to be put on permanent display in a city museum.
Boxing chiefs are trying to find a new home for the ring before Sparta amateur boxing club in McDonald Road is demolished to make way for houses.
Sparta boss George Forsyth said he was determined that the boxing ring would be saved from the scrapheap and is hopeful it can be preserved as a museum exhibit for fans of the sport.
