    RIP 'The Dartford Destroyer' The Joe Brown fight is worth a watch. Jim Kirkwood's book on him is worth a read too.

    RIP.

    Hell of a fighter. I don't think the FOTY fight with Brown is still 'out there'.

    Very good fighter. It maybe cliche, but if he fought in this era, it would of been quite likely he would of won a mainstream world title, of some kind.

    RIP.

    Condolences to his family.

    I saw Dave at a boxing memorabilia fayre a few months ago where he was signing copies of his biography. It was a pleasure to briefly meet him and his wife.

    I had Dave on my BBC London show when his book came out last year. I will play the interview next Thursday. Excellent fighter.

    Adios.
