    Ok who knows this one?

    My first I guess it could be said,
    Is associated with spelling,
    Or Miriam and Moses,
    In the old tales that they're telling,

    I never did the Abbott make,
    But still I am no liar,
    I was always considered greater than,
    The average humble friar,

    Five years I dominated all,
    My gimlet eyes classed prey,
    Till one young guy led me to fall,
    And at his feet I lay,

    You get bonus points for all the clues you spot...

    Nope...

    I have to admit on returning to it I struggled to remember who it was myself. Maybe went a little too cryptic!

    There are quite a few clues however and we are talking a very talented fighter

    Solve this

    Skinny legged super noodle
    Couldn't even squat a poodle
    Came out wearing lots of foam
    Almost broke his tender bones
    Loud, obnioxious and quite tall
    Ain't got any skill at all.

    Nope, but you are on the right lines with an OT biblical name

    I'm glad you got it as I used up all my clues in there!
