Bear with me on this one - this guy overcame so much crap in his life to become a champion, but he was also a really exciting fighter to watch.
I don't think they'll make a film of his life, cos it would be too depressing!
Dead at 45. Sad

Having said that DezB - it's a story that should be told - not gonna be a feel good movie though! Marvelous & super talented boxer, no doubt.

I remember him fighting M.A.B, a hard wee bugger.
