Good luck and good health to the pair of you! Taking a trip to London but not until 2 days after. If I lived there I'd be at the York Hall every month but it's over 200miles away an the train ain't cheap
*and congrats on the big Ton!

I think me and frank can help a few fighters & maybe one day get into management and with a couple of backers maybe put on a show & see how we get on.i always have people & twitter trolls slagging me & my record so its nice to hear from people on here who understand my job.it means a lot to me that you guys appriciate what is journeymen do.i made a lot more of myself in this role & boxed boys & on shows I never would have being the ticket seller.i was never great but knew I could push on thru the pain.even as a kid,I'd keep coming.if you didn't nail me down !
Don't ever listen to the keyboard warriors and trolls Johnny, you've been a true warrior and can always hold your head up high. Anyone who knows boxing will look at your record and see that it is the record of a true fighter, not some media creation. I hope you stay in boxing, your experience would help a lot of young fighters coming through...

Cheers hurlock. Only count two genuine stoppages. Liam Walsh & brad skeete. Both good fighters but skeete was just too big for me. The rest cuts & a couple of dodgy reffing. But cheers mate. Thank you
