    For those who like a good boxing read have a look at "journeymen" by Mark Turley.

    A really good insight into the role of journeymen in the game with cracking interviews with some of the best Johnny greaves, Jody meikle, Max Maxwell etc..

    I'm really enjoying reading it at the moment, available on Amazon.

    Ill get it. Journeymen really fasinate me and dont get the credit they deserve they really are the life of boxing by helping future champs gain experience

    Just finished it - a very good read and I would definitely recommend it.

    Also very funny in places - particularly the chapter on Jody Meikle!!
