I always wonder how guys of your size make those kind of weights cos you're a big guy for those weight classes!

Even bigger now mate fat fornicate now

I used to spar him at the Lennox Lewis college in Hackney/Clapton. Good fighter. Shame his pro career didn't take off, had good ability

Michael, you was a giant as a super bantam. Now I know why you went on like a machine, you must have trained proper hard to make that weight!

Always needed a long time to make the weight as use to pile weight on in between fight s going back to Wallace I piped him aba finals at bantam 10.9 then we were both selected for multi nation s in Liverpool I had a serious court case which was same day so had to pull out he went on and won the gold beaten 4 or 5 top lads
