Wayne Mc Cullough outside a hotel in Dublin after the UFC weigh ins.

Tyson Fury at the burger king, then the plane, of Berling Airport.

I saw Gary Mason in the Waterloo station branch of WHS being very obvious checking out the jazz mags, presumably because he had some time to kill before his train

Eubank many times at bar in Myhotel. Also at my old house where his young sons were climbing our walls and my mum went into one. I lived next door to his trainer.

I was playing in a poker tournament in a Bolton casino. Robin Reid came in dressed in a tight lime green t shirt and started talking to a fella on the table next to me. This lass next to me was giving him the eye.
Is he famous? she said.
he used to be a boxer i said., very good too he was ( this was before his ill advised comeback against Froch).
he's gorgeous she said.
oh, I forgot to mention, he's a porn star now I said.

Dont think some people are getting the idea of meeting boxers randomly,seeing them at the york hall or in a gym isnt random lol

stayed in the same hotel as eamon mcgee, dale robinson & james hare a few years ago

Saw Tyson Fury and his uncle in a bar in Watford. I sat with them and together we watched Derek Chisora bite Paul Butlin's ear on Sky Sports. Tyson's boxing knowledge is surprisingly good and he's actually a gentleman, his 'smack talk' is purely for publicity purposes.

I was walking home from work one evening on Lavender Hill in Battersea, see a crowd of people outside a bar, asked what was going on, turned out Tyson was in there having a drink. Close but no cigar.

I don't rate fury above domestic level, in fact he will do well to win a British title, he hasn't got FW to gift him the Commonwealth, but I do think he is a nice guy

Ricky Hatton in Tramps nightclub in Tenerife.
Nicky Cook in Tenerife airport.
Some French amateur boxer in Tenerife who claims he is turning pro early this year - can't remember his name but would recognise it if it was in print. Probably full of shit
Robin Reid in Alicante.
Bernard Dunne in Mayo before the Machado fight.
Andy Lee in Limerick.

Whilst working at a shop in Thorpe Park, I served Lloyd Honeyghan. That was a few weeks before he fought Pazienza if I remember correctly.

I bumped into Marvin Hagler in a nightclub in Milan in 1992. I didn't notice he was sitting at the next table for a while, what with him wearing a baseball cap and the loud music. Spoke to him, nice enough guy. Maybe he was friendly because, as luck had it, I was wearing a Lonsdale "We promise you blood, sweat and tears" T-shirt, so he could initially see that I was perhaps a boxing person. It's interesting to see boxing guys in person, both Lloyd and Marvin seemed much bigger than I would have imagined. Marvin's arms seemed long, and even more broad shouldered than from seeing him on the tele.

Saw Eubank walking with a woman and file in his hand near Berkley square, London about 6 months ago. Didn't speak to him.

Saw ryan rhodes buyin jeans in meadowhall!
Shared a k,f,c with kell brook a couple of weeks after mcintyre fight!
Got picture and autograph with calzaghe at the hilton hotel after manfredo fight! (my missis took the pic with her phone and its look's more like joe pasqali!) still not talking to her cos of that!!!!!

Was running up the rocky steps in Philly on the morning of cotto vs. Clottey and turned round only to see clottey running up next to me.

Michael Sprott cooly wandering into thepub and ordering a guiness after knocking colin kenna out.

1)I used to bump into Pat Barrett regularly out in nightclubs in Manchester city centre.

2) I once saw Frank Bruno & his wife in McDonalds in Hornchurch, Essex (about 1993) - really nice fella who signed the back of a receipt for me.

3) Saw Lennox Lewis in Brixton (South London) about 3 nights before the Razor Ruddock fight. There was this commotion around a Mercedes car & then a tall beanpole of a man, plus some burly bloke & what turned out to be Lennox's brother stepped out of the Merc; I saw that it was Mr Lewis & ran across the road; I shook his hand & said to to him, "make sure you beat that Ruddock good!" He replied, "Don't worry, I'm gonna knock him out!" (whilst massaging his Right hand)! He was dead right too!!!

Boxed at Camberley boxing club when Matthew Barney was training there. Didn't realise he was training there before i turned up.

Not so random, but met Oscar De Le Hoyer at his book launch in 2008..... didn't realise the book launch was on so kinda random.

Even less random, met all the Wildcard lot when i trained in L.A back in 2008.
