    Was wondering about this the other day (I'd watched the Jennings fight).

    Anyway sad news always seemed a nice fella and was in some good fights.

    All the best to him in the future

    That Chas Symonds fight was so awesome with him hugging his dad afterwards. Sporting drama

    I thought he oozed class at times but the Jennings war was one of those rare crossroads affairs you get these days.
    Like his dad, Ross "The Boss" always got stuck in and was good to watch.

    He was very good. Not top level domestic but decent enough. The Chas Symonds fight was brilliant he looked a monster for a short period. Gave Jennings a decent fight too.

    He was always a fighter I enjoyed watching and he could mix with the top guys domestically. Well done Minter.
