I didn't know there was one but I'd be interested too with Tony being a fellow Hull lad.
Although Tony is having a bit of hard time at the moment having just been sentenced to a fairly lenghty stretch.

The link was to the publisher's website which gave you a link to pay via cheque. it's dead now. The link on youtube is also dead.

The book was called boxing booth. Quick google or search on ebay might find you a 2nd hand copy?

I had read on here before that Tony had got himself in bother, but didn't realise things had gone bad, real shame, a proper nice bloke

Thanks. Drug dealing is not far away from owning an off-licence in my opinion

I have got a copy somewhere. Tony published it himself and it came signed. Good read. Some mad stories in there. The sequel might not be as light hearted though...

:TU: cheers for that what a legend. When he was fighting at the york hall against JJ Ojuederie his cornerman said 'this is not a pantomine' to which he replied 'oh yes it is' - brilliant.

He fought 7 world champions - Ralf Rocchigiani who he drew with,Victor Cordoba,Johnny Nelson,Montell Griffin,Firat Arslan,Enzo Maccarrinelli and David Haye.

He fought 21 British,Commonwealth or European champions : Neville Brown,Eddy Smulders,Maurice Core,James Cook,Franco Wanyama,Ole Klemetsen,Torsten May,Dean Francis,Jan Lefeber,Crawford Ashley,Rob Norton,Micheal Sprott,John Keaton,Johny Jensen,Martin Rogan,Ovil Mckenzie,Dereck Chisora and Troy Ross and beat Bruce Scott, Tony Wilson and Neil Simpson.

He fought World title challengers : Mark Prince,Leif Keiski,Thomas Hansvoll,Bash Ali and beat Omar Sheika.

He also fought John Mcdermott,Mark Baker and Roman Greenburg amongst others also beating Dominic Negus.

What a career. :bow: 166 fights.

No, I looked the other day. A lot of books self published or with low key publishers don't get on there unless they are second hand.

It's called "Boxing Booth" as far as I know, which makes it quite hard to google/search for.
