    Has anyone ever heard this story? I just don't know if I buy it lol, Johnny is harmless but this is hard to get the head around. Says he was sent out to East Germany as a sparring partner back when his career was at a low, and he was put in digs that he didn't realise closed at weekends, so he says, he only realised the Saturday afternoon that he was locked in, climbed out his bedroom window, shimmied down the guttering pipe, went across two fields, hopping the two fences in the way of an apple tree and a pear tree, which he then climbed up, picked a load of fruit from and carried it all back the same way, to his room.

    Hahahaha
