Whatever happened to him? Always matched tough (Amar and O'Donnell being a step too far), but pulled off some great results. Has he packed it in?

I heard he was doing a cage fight soon.

Ah, shame, thought he still had plenty to offer the sport and had made some decent improvements.

Toms boxing back on the unlicensed shows I hear. That's where I boxed tom twice & he sold a great ticket . You can get 50% of your ticket sale money as your purse so he won't do bad . Had probs with his hooter so against that opposition he,ll be better off. Fair play , good lad

Say that again?

Only saw him box three times, but he was great to watch, especially against Thaxton. Good, come forward fighter with plenty of cahonas.

im only laughing because ive done it myself!Ha

I saw him box Thacko at the York Hall, he was noticeably bigger and Thaxton couldn't budge him, he was much stronger.

He was on a good run at one point. Beating Siddique by dq then Thaxton but the challenge against O'Donnell was a bit too far. Shame cos he's an entertaining fighter.

He fought in a cage fight on Saturday 19th - He knocked the bloke sparko.

Dodgy, vid, but pretty brutal

The Glover cage fight was a disgraceful match.When his opponent Marty Kayes boxed as a pro he was about a bantamweight and never won in about 15 contests

Potter was sitting across from me at the YH when Larry fought McD. He looked like he was in serious shape. While he was never particularly "big" as a pro, he certainly has a much different body shape now he's fighting in MMA. What's changed?

Orb he was a chubby pro,now hes bulked up in mma...what do you think....

If Mark land clean he will do most MMA fighters in Uk. the problem will be when he is on the ground against someone with better skills

Ive been to a few MMA shows in the uk now there all bulked up animals,Ian Freeman rate Potter as the next best thing...but your right if someone get him down&ground&pound how will he react?? Theres no way the uk mma is drug tested....

Yeah.

He was like that on the unlicensed circuit. Massive & cut. Looked great in bashing them lads half he's size with no boxing exp , good fighter but the matchmaker should have been lynched

didn't know they actually had matchmakers in mma. Not my thing at all.
