    Ol' Ragamuffin - forgotten? Nah, he's still highly regarded, and always gets a mention in the tabloids when a Brit goes overseas to fight for a title.
    Wrong thread, Mook, even though Lloyd 'Mickey don't pay no overtime' Honeyghan is one of my Brit all time faves, too!

    Was a QUALITY operator, underappreciated while active.
    Got robbed more than once; Gainer / J P Chacon were gifted victories against him;
    Scott Harrison was given a draw when even his most ardent fans knew a robbery had taken place before them.
    Did I read somewhere that Polo is now incarcerated on drugs offences? Sad if true.

    Had all the tools to be a good world champ.
    Unfortunately, started to believe he was unbeatable; Partied; Skipped training; Screwed up.
