    Didn't like Khan or robin reid either.

    Ant Crolla, Denton Vassell & Craig Watson all top guys

    I've spoke to Jamie Moore on a few occasions. But once i seen him parked up in asda car park, and i had a friend that wanted me get a glove signed off a few boxers that he could use in a charity auction. So i knocked on Mooresy's car window and asked what time he trains down at olivers gym so i could go down with a glove, he got out of the car, opened the boot, pulled out an autograph glove and signed it for me and said "there ya go... Saves you a trip" , top guy... He was Euro Champ at the time aswell.

    Were you his prison *****?....Just asking

    I'd love to meet Enzo, he always comes over as a class bloke, very amiable and decent

    Bumped into him in the Pontefract Castle on Oxford St....he had my Mrs in stitches, the dirty old **** :D. I wanted to talk Napoles and he just wanted to shmooze.

    I've been lucky enough to meet several decent fighters.....

    RJJnr at Dave Radfords gym at Hemsworth
    Frazier at the same place
    Dave Boy Green was a neighbour in wild and wooly Cambridgeshire
    Stracey
    Conteh at a dinner but he seemed pissed and disinterested
    Honeyghan, mad as a ahtter
    Furys dad :?
    Bruce Woodcock...a couple of months before he died. I was introduced as a friend and left with tears in my eyes. Great bloke.
    Ryan Rhodes
    Alan Richardson; British featherweight champ and put down by me as a schoolboy (he was champ at the time), true story :deal
    Jon Jo Irwin
    Witter regularly...he posts on here now, you have no idea who he is :thumbsup
    Brian London more than once
    Joe Erskine
    Richard Dunn
    Stefy Bull
    Jamie McDonnell
    ****ing loads when I think about it.....I even met one of the posters on here, Blue Butterworth aka Burnley Blue....my uncle described him once as "that puff from Burnley", just goes to show.

    My biggest regret is that I missed meeting Jack Dempsey by literally two seconds, I went to the bog and my old man had a handshke with the legend. I was only 16 at the time and that would have been the highlight of my life.
     
  8. I wonder who Witter is..........

  12. I'm sure there's someone other than you on here that admits to being a Donny Rovers fan.

    Must be him. Can't remember the name though.

    I know, I was nearly in tears, honestly it ruined the whole trip for me. I would have givenm anything just to have touched the hands that did for Willard....legend.

    On a positive note, and looking at degrees of seperation, I have been in the ring with man who took at least a round off of Duran, that was fun. Guess :deal

    Thats whatshisname, can't remember because I'm pissed, but I think that he's Asian British. You wont guess because his posts are so balanced and realistic
