    I was one of the funniest comic ever, whilst my distant forebear was a
    boxing legend of his country. All in the family I say...Pray tell, who am I and my distant relative ?...

    Yes AF, it is the great Peter Sellers whose distant forebear was the
    famous British bare-knuckle HW champ Daniel Mendoza who was
    considered the first pre-modern stylist in the 1790s era....:good
