    Matt Scriven what a guy!

    Veteran of over 90 pro contests

    Travels all over the country fighting prospects ranging in size from Welter up to super middle always comes in in great fighting shape.

    When not travelling the country testing prospects Scriven can be found in Iraq working for private security firms!

    He has also worked a a PE teacher and was formerly a PT instructor in the army

    He also put all his savings into buying a gym which was his dream and lives next to it in a caravan where fellow pros Alex Spitko and Dennis Corpe train

    I just thought the Brit forum should take a moment to appreciate this great servant of our noble sport

    Me too. It was class, he just showed up with no cornerman and banjo'd the guy with a left hook. The game needs guys just like him, they are the lifeblood of the sport

    out of all the articles in the Boxing News Annual this one is the one I enjoyed the most, we get to hear about Khan, Hatton, Haye, Lewis etc all the time but rarely get to hear the story about hard working journeymen!
