    Ha ha brilliant!!

    Look at the old gym at 1 min 50 secs! They used to have a carpet as the ring floor, broom handles as posts and bits of rope to keep it all together!

    Joe sounds a very morbid 19 year old!

    I like how you can hear an old episode of "Boon" on the audio track at some points...was this off an old videotape, or was that actually on the telly in the background during the interview, I wonder?

    Great vid, I love taking a look at where a fighter is coming from, how they all got started. On a side note, I wonder how many miles the average champion has run in their life; has Joe circumnavigated the globe without being the wiser...
