    I was born in 1981 on the 10th March. Exactly the same day as Samuel Eto'o although he went on to achieve more than me (in a sporting sense so far anyway).

    Seeing the state of the current British Heavyweight Champions, both would of been a presence in this era. Of course neither was a John L. Gardner, the premier British Heavyweight of the time, along with the forgotten Bugner.

    Emile Heskey was 3.

    Paul McGrath was playing for St.Pats.

    Wilfred Benitez scored one of my favourite KO's ever, against Maurice Hope.

    Marvin Hagler had his rematch with Vito Antuofermo.

    And it was ten years before I was born.
