have you ever seen a boxer in a fight out of the ring ?

[Supermiddle]

Graham Brett, who is about 48 now was a 6'0 lightweight and only had about half a dozen pro fights, but over 120 unpaid, got into a fight in the Lord Burleigh Pub on Vauxhall Bridge Road. He sparked 4 squaddies who were taking the piss out of his Mrs. This was about 6 or 7 years ago. He was like fooking ligthtening. The 4 of them were literally out cold on the floor. Could have been a very good pro but couldnt keep out of the pub, even in his late teens. Great streetfighter uis Bretty.

Mathew Hall used to clean people out for fun on nights out back in the day.

Must have been out a while now, wonder if he is still on here

I don't think today's fighters are as active on the cobbles as their predecessors. They should step up.

My brother's mate was an amateur boxer of some repute in the 80's. We were in a pub when a guy (and two of his mates) called him some racist names and asked him to step outside. My brother asked if he needed any help, but his boxer mate declined. He stepped outside with the racists and about sixty seconds later walked back in the pub, not even a hair out of place.

Saw that. Awful. Seemed like he had no remorse either. Bit like the Gary Delaney case but Gary got 11 years. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... e-pub.html

Delaney got life with a minimum of 11. He served more than that.

Where I live, there is a story that a local hardknock sparked out Joey Singleton in the late 80’s.

Think Joey was minding the door at some club/pub.

Never really read that much into this as the devil needs be in the detail, of which there is very little. He could have blindside sucker punched him.

There is something in it mind, as the following week or so Joey came looking for him with a small entourage.

Sometimes you will get a big fat guy who's a real hardman , meaning he can take a punch , he's hard to hurt and has a determination to win , but he will need a fitness about him to do it , You see it all the time , guys who just never run out of steam and can fight for fun , a natural fitness and thats whats needed FITNESS , without it you get beat has soon has you meet someone of equal strenght and calibrs in or out of the ring , which is why most boxers will usually win on the street , but a fit strong lightweight is'nt gonna take Lenny Maclean , it would take a fit strong Chisora type .

Then again you can have all that and get sparkled if you can't take a punch then it sorts out the good givers from the good takers , I worked the doors with a kick boxer once , he was good backup but for my liking too handy at giving a belting , On two occasions i actually witnessed him break peoples legs , with a well aimed kick , this guy used to do the Van Damm shit and practice kicking trees , , he would spend his day rolling metal bars up and down his shins , jeez when he kicked people folded , , yet he got sparkled one night by a punter who did'nt give a shit just whacked him on the chin ,

My father watched Mick Mills put 3 people to sleep who had definitely started it on the doors. He used to re-tell it happily as the 3 were loud and bullies and were literally put to sleep. Had the pleasure of meeting Mick years later.

I met a pro boxer on the door, Lee Swaby, years later, he was the chap who KO'ed Enzo Mac early on. Never saw Lee so much as raise his voice, he was the perfect door security and managed to talk people into being sensible.

are you scared to say ??

is it hear say or you saw??

Its just something you don't do. Nothing to do with being scared,just not the done thing

Julius Francis looks like he can handle himself on the cobbles..

Had a nice little chat with Julius a few years back about his boxing career when I was at box park wembley and he was Security there.

He is an absolute unit his hands were the size of my head.

The security in the white t-shirt and baseball cap is also a former pro fighter, can't think of his name though

On the other side dident Steve Collins do some damage to a big doorman a few years back? Think it may have been a cheap shot though.

Steve Collins is lunatic hard, fornicating Scott Harrison and Eamonn Magee out together, Jim Rock was called the hardest Irish fighter Tommy Kelly ever worked with and he's worked with them all, Jim was the Pink Panther who wore Pink shorts

Delaney who played up the Cockney hard man trope, "Dis David Haye?? Oi coll 'em the Pretty Boy...E gets roight up my nose"

Always struck me as a complete scumbag, not so sure about Mark

[Cask]

I can't remember the name but there was a Belfast journeyman with a win some loss some record, outside the local Rose and Crown few guys were hassling another fella on his own, he told them to pack it in, the ringleader who recognised him said "And what the fornicate has it got to do with you, canvas-back??" PING POW BSH it was over in a second 2 of them knocked out the other one ran

His name came up on a podcast with some old villain . He said most boxers were great in prison but Delaney was a terrible bully and had to be taught a lesson when he got to the dispersal system.

Blue boy Gallagher and Ritchie Evatt used to be a nightmare on nights out together

Two big punchers with "unpredictable" demeanors, Evatt reminds me of a boxer I know , lovely guy, seems to come out the other end, just those eyes, broad shoulders, ham fists, a reputation that preceeded him everyone was shit scared of him , also had a reputation for cleaning guys out on nights out, who picks fights with guys like that?? You must be absolutely wired on coke, red bull and spirits
