    I know he’s just had a baby but anyone know what’s happening with him? Not fought in about 18 months

    Last I heard he was doing a boxing training scheme for loads of youngsters to get involved with the sport.

    I would imagine his own career has wound down.

    Really? He's only 25. Seems a shame to chuck it. I remember watching Paul Appleby when he was coming up and he never had a style that was made for a long career. His defence was basically zero and eventually he got in to too many wars but The Mailman doesn't have that kinda face first style.

    Yeah Appleby was exciting but got hit too much.

    I think Flynn had a career high in achieving Gold in Glasgow. He ain't had a lot of luck with injuries which has stalled his progress. Also don't think he would ever get past British level.
