    I'm pretty sure Ricky admitted to being dropped by Robin in his autobiography.

    I've heard the story that Ali was surprised with a 40+ year old Marcianos strenght/ power when they filmed the Fight of the Century footage but thats about it.

    Naseem Hamed was meant to be sparring a 15-year old at the Winconbank Gym when he was treating Brendan Ingle with disrespect, the 15-year old apparently told Hamed to show Ingle some respect, and Naz just turned round and dropped him with a body shot.

    The young lad in question is believed to be Junior Witter.
