What British fighter had the most amazing backstory?

Thanks for the info S&C, thats why I love this place! Theres always someone in here to help out infowise no matter what time of the day or night:deal
As for Freddie, his old man was scottish as far as I know, Freddie himself used to say he remembered his old man cheering on Ken Buchanan on the tv back in the day... my pal knows more about it, when I talk to him I will be sure to report back with the full info.
