    Heard a few different stories about what he'd got himself caught up in so it was no huge surprise to hear how this had turned out. Not criticising te bloke either, RIP (if true of course)

    I know a few people that know him personally and they all said he was a decent fella.

    bound to involve drugs imo, no disrespect to anyone involved but 2 lads rock up in an area well known for big shipments of drugs going off, mooching about in a moody van, looks like they have been robbed...maybe they were just the runners, who knows, sounds drug related to me.

    I know he wasn't a drug dealer but don;t know if he got involved in something it wasn't his normal lifestyle.

    ****ing bad news this. Don't think people should be
    going on about the reasons for him being there. We
    all know anyway, just keep it boxing related. RIP

    my girlfriend knew him, apparently he ran up debts when he took over a pub in the wirral & got into selling drugs as a way of paying them off. from what i heard he was a genuinely nice lad who just got mixed up with the wrong kind of people, sad news R.I.P
