    Couldn't get the actual video on but the link will take you there.It's a BBC article about a boxer from Stoke on Trent who has turned his life around from being a criminal with over 50 convictions and hooked on a scary,cheap drug called ****** dust.
    Over 70 folk have died in that town alone and given life expectancy is two year at best,you could say this lad has already achieved much.
    Anyway to put things in perspective this guy was a genuine bum,homeless,robbing folk and using drugs.However he fares professionally from here on in?I hope he never reads some of the comments of those who call pro boxers bums.
