    Remember this weirdo?

    He appeared on the British domestic scene and generated equal parts buzz and controversy from 2013 until 2016, racking up a 10-0 record and peddling lots of strange claims about his upbringing in the wilderness and unconventional training habits under the harsh watchful eye of his father. Then, suddenly, eight years ago, he just fell off the grid.

    His name has popped up now and then since, usually linking up with a new coach, training for a bit, and proclaiming a comeback that never ends up coming to fruition. This pattern was still repeating as recently as October 2022:

    IB Funfact: when people on the board started throwing around the name of Rolly Romero, due to a series of coincidences I actually thought for a while this is who they meant. To wit; both operated in adjacent weight ranges; both were alternately decried or admired for being flamboyant and brash, with critics writing them off as social media constructs of no substance and dismissing their in-ring skills - though some defended them and praised them as natural talents; obviously the phonetically very similar names; and finally the American's debut came nine months after the Welsh southpaw's final bout. So timing-wise, from my perspective, you can understand the initial confusion. :sisi1

    Always thought he came across well in interviews, his dad on the other hand seemed a nutter.

    Definitely. Bit disrespectful to call him a weirdo. Isn’t this guy a moderator?

    Heard the legendary, undefeated hardman Gypsy John Fury used similar training methods in his prime but had a barrel of beer at both ends of the trunk and done 1,000 straight reps followed by 3,000 press ups and 60 minutes with Mrs John Fury.
