Absolutely stunned and saddened when I heard the news earlier, a man who ate slept and breathed Boxing. RIP
RIP. wonder why he did it. he must have been financially secure and had a cushy job. could have been any number of reasons though. still, easier ways to go than jumping in front of a train.
Met Dean at the Rees-Crolla show in Bolton, let me through a doorway first and after I said cheers he said "no worries mate" nice guy RIP.
Pal jumping in front of a train is the number 1 way to kill your self closely followed by over dosing on pills and then hanging your self its because its instant death...
Had a problem at ***ton/Butler fight(***tons dad was going mad) Dean stepped in called him a **** to his face, apologized and invited me to sit ringside that truly made my year getting the opportunity to talk boxing(and music) with somebody like that was a complete one off. Saw him twice since and he always gave me a nod and polite smile while id crack a crap joke. Lets ease up on the hows and whys it wont matter a **** in the end. RIP lets hope the celebs with there statements about personal battles **** off tho and do it in peace
