He looks like a low level bloke who sells shite drugs in that photo.

I also believe Martinez was juiced to the gills. As much as I love Mexico & Mexican boxers I do think it's rampant there (probably everywhere).

I know that I could drive 20 minutes south & legally buy any amount of PEDs etc.

Anyway, good luck to the Selbys. Are they part black or just Taffs sporting dreads?

You cant really think of many boxers worse suited to bare knuckle than Andrew Selby, and that was in his prime. This version will be desperate.

His brother did a documentary years ago and mentioned being mixed race.

Sad really isn’t it when that talent doesn’t get fully realised must be a head wrecker too. No winners when this happens

He shouldn't have retired if this was how it was going to end up. He had talent. It was a good win over Rosales who was a gatekeeper at world level. Selby beat him 12-0. Sad to see how its ended up for him.

I remember thinking Selby had skills to burn but lacked any real power, still thought he'd get his hands on a title but seemed to disappear bar a couple of easy fights(almost 7 years ago) after his first defeat.

The bare-knuckle scene is as violent as it gets, hope he's in decent shape because some of the lads in it are much younger, very hungry and ready for war.

Could see him being as successful as Frankie Gavin at Bare Knuckle. I did see somewhere that Lee Selby was training. Be intrested to see how he does as he always seemed to live a disciplined life
