    My mate told me a couple of days ago that he saw him working there and had to do a double take.

    Howard must have squandered his money as he's made a fair bit and should be looking after his brother!

    I was told he working as Bus driver the other week. He's really nice guy met him before and i got a mate who knows him. Sad to hear that.

    Howard's still out in Guyana i think. Not sure what's the deal between them to.

    No disgrace in that. Maybe surprising but if he's fallen on hard times financially...or even if he hasn't and wants to keep himself busy and earn a bit..why not. Sure he won't be in there forever.

    Any ideas where the Kos family made its fortune?

    I was looking at his odds for a fight recently...6/5 and 3/5(WTF) and I think I might be onto something. Maybe the people in Middlesbrough are stupid enough to bet on odds like that? :think

    That picture must have been taken before they built that lake in their back garden ;-)

    Real shame a guy who won a Southern Area title is reduced to working for a living after he retires from boxing.
