    I've just finished reading his autobiography, which was very interesting.I'd like to know more about his amateur career.Was he any good in the vest? Boxrec has his pro record, which was cut short, so cant really tell how he'd of developed as a pro.He was a sparring partner/friend of tyson's, so he must've been tough. Your thoughts and opinions please people ! Does the after dinner circuit now all round the uk .......

    Yes it is a good read. I'd say theres plenty of blarney though, usually is with these gangster biographys.....
