He later went on to fight for the middleweight world title and now he trains Carl Froch
Not a lad you'd want a toe to toe with at that time

Huddersfield told me at the time. They all knew who did it but they all kept their mouths shut. He would have lost his license over that

Ricky hatton allegedly got into trouble at Sheffield utd with man city. Same sort of thing palms were greased and it went away so hatton could get on with his career.
Also the Barry boys had a big off with the Zulus at a Barrie jones fight in brum

Thank f**k for that. Since this thread I was racking my brains thinking who was the boxer the Zulus used to follow in the 90s. I was thinking Richie Woodhall, hes a brummie also, but having seen his suit and tie combos on Sky there was no way he was a football lad. Not a dresser anyway.
