    This a bit i just read about Wayne Rigby but this is from four years back

    ''Rigby is now eking out a living from three different jobs. He does night shifts at the post office, works on doors at the weekend, and this week began a day-time job as an odd-job man.

    But, despite his bitterness, he still retains a love for boxing itself and in January plans to return to Joe Pennington's Northside Boxing Club gym to help with coaching.''

    Does anyone know what happened to Kevin Lear? He beat Micheal Gomez i know he had injury problems and only had one more fight after that and finished as a unbeaten fighter. Real shame because he was a real decent prospect.

    Andy Flute runs his won pub.

    Amir Khan has bloated to 17 stone and plays on his Wii 12 hours a day with his brother and his #1 fan IronBull.

    Nice link, i remember the Ayers fights also,quality scraps.Ayers always reminded me of Craig Charles :D Shame he is gutted regarding his cash etc must be frustratiing. Most importantly he has his desire there still, with his fitness. Pretty sure an interview before the Ayers fights, he had pictures around the placeof his Ayers and bags ofgrapes, fruit addict or something.

    Cheers

    no I would never spar with Enzo he is a serious operator who might have seriously damaged me..............I just sparred with amateur boxers

    Never seen Enzo down the club...........he is from more the other side of town where his father owns a gym

    I know a guy who trained down his fathers gym and who trained alongside Enzo

    But he said ever since Enzo got with the Calzaghe camp you never see him down there anymore
