Said he was coming back, several times infact (I think the last one was last year). Never has.

Prince did very well against a peak Michaelswecki, it was a brave defeat and went up in my estimation following it.

thats a real shame, as it obviously got him down big time,, he did come back a year after that and fought at cruiser stone odd heavier and won. Heard he was quite religeous thats a shame then as maybe good have grabbed one of those belts if he had stuck in.

Yes , agree with stujones . Prince fought really well in that challenge to Darius .
It could have been the sort of fight that would launch his career . Shame he faded away .

I used to know Mark, and am still friends with his old coach, Carly Carew. (Adrian Dodsons dad.)

Mark did become religious and is not interested in Boxing. Its a shame because he was a good fighter.

I was watching an old Prince fight the other day (Wayne Hankins), good puncher he was. Gave a really heart warming interviewing in which he told eveyone that a fighter he knew was doing well after suffering a serious boxing injury. He was religious back then aswell.

Prince was an incredible physical specimen. He could sit down with his legs straight out in front of him and lift himself off of the floor with his finger tips. :o :o :o

I swear he's in the crowd in one of Gabriel's videos.
