Not sure his capacity is however.
He’s a Corporate Fundraising & Events Manager apparently.
He also looks like a lesbian housewife
And to think that Warren once described him as the new breed of boxer: good looking ( :lol: ) thunderous puncher and a member of Mensa

Yes, Woods often said in interviews that he'll know when it's time to hang up his gloves and pick up his trowel again...

Surely some of these could make money at speaking events?
Seems a strange combo as a kitchen fitter is a skilled job involving carpentry and plumbing at least and pays a lot better than cleaning.

Is it worth a read? I always liked Woods, he came across as a decent chap and I was really pleased when he finally landed a world title...

Yeah top book. Woods comes across as very down to earth, no ego in him at all just one of the lads. Defo worth a read.
