There is no record of Errol Flynn ever representing Britian in boxing in the 1928 Olympics and I have emailed the British Boxing Association and done extensive research. Mar 08 07, 5:20 AM

The Perfect Specimen (1937) Flynn plays a sheltered young rich man who is introduced to the wider world by Joan Blondell in this film, his first light comedy. In one scene he did some boxing, which led studio publicists to invent the fantasy that he had represented Australia as a boxer in the 1928 Olympics. http://themave.com/Flynn/filmog.htm Mar 08 07, 6:40 AM
