    Wasn't he suspended a few fights after his war with Groves? I don't exactly remember the details but he was banned for something.

    This is how I remember it, but that was more than 2 years ago now so I don't think he's planning on making a comeback.

    Shame, he is a hard, hard man.

    I thought he was banned for some kind of criminal behaviour. Like threatened someone with a gun or something like that. Maybe i ve just made that upbut thought there was some kind of trouble he got himself into outside the ring.

    Ah...think it was the year before the groves fight mate. Always thought it was after and put paid to his career. Apparently he was aquitted...the victim of the hammer attack was some kind of drug dealer. The drug ban was news to me. Sure i read somewhere he didnt really love boxing just done it cause he was pretty good at it.
