It's 'legit' as in he boxed under that name but that's not his real name, sadly.

He boxed out of the Ingle gym if I remember correctly.

Fidel Castro Smith's actual name was Fidel Castro, but he boxed under the unlikely name of slugger o'toole.

I've met Chris Bacon and his brother, they are Aussies, his bro used to be on Sons and Daughters. I think he was a top wrestler also, a real good pro, proper hard nut but what a nice bloke.
I think he has done a lot on the unlicensed circuit since and pretty much smashed everyone before him!
I read he was in bother before with one of the Hyland brothers over some money owed with Wayne Rooney's agent, I was pleased to see he got off.
