It might actually be one of David Price’s jackets.

Interesting as at the very top of this page he also models a pair of Ian Napa’s trousers.

I think he was a warehouseman somewhere
he was a warehouseman yup. Mentions it in interviews at having done a shift shortly prior to the world title fight and he was a very late replacement to save the card for Barry Hearn.

A good question would be, what is a good other job for a boxer?

Warehouse work sounds good, low stress, lots of moving, shifting weights, punching some boxes.

Joe Hayden the young unbeaten pro works at Rampton Hospital looking after patients, he has gone part time now as he as sponsorship, seems to work well with him but he has an insane work ethic and I can imagine his empathic nature suits the role.

Maxi was a tradesman for most of his career.
