    @ Daniel - 100% Agreed.

    There has been no one like him since (or even before imho).

    @ atberry - That hl reel is stunning mate, stunning.

    He is also one of my top two boxers.
    Big heart, big personality, and a true warrior.
    I miss 'The Dark Destroyer'.
    Would like to see him back in the spotlight.

    Legend of British boxing. Wish he'd retired after Malinga fight and wish he'd never worn that shirt at the Bruno-Mccall fight, but still has to be fav British fighter of all time.
    Had the absolute amazing pleasure of helping out in his corner for the Eubank return at old trafford. What a night. Met him and Collins recently at a dinner do, Gave me the best man hug ever (no homo) Absolute legend.
