    Loved Roberto Duran when I was a kid. Such an energetic and fearless fighter.

    Ken Buchanan was a brilliant boxer, but one of the worst men I have ever encountered.

    Sorry for the cliffhanger, wasn't meant haha.

    Ach he lived local for a while and several things from getting into a scrap with my mate who was trying to stop him battering his then bird in the street to being a right * in the local pubs poncing free drinks all night.

    Was many years ago and I have no idea, he may be the pillar of the community now but those memories stick.
