How good was he? I remember Brendan Ingle talking about him some years back, although I never saw him in action.
I remember some weird story about him getting peed off with Ingle, storming up there with a couple of rude boys, and getting chased off by Ingle's two sons.Noxy wrote:That was it, Shafiq!

Bit more than fighting, that was. A young lad (a mate of mine) was stabbed by one of Shafiq's friends. Shafiq continued to punch and kick him after he'd been stabbed in the head and back. The lad died. Senseless waste of a 17 year-old life.Noxy wrote:Ah right, I didn't know about that. I googled him yesterday, he did time for violent disorder as well (fighting outside a nightclub). He sounds a dodgy character.
Sickening. Why didn't he get life?Lenny Cravats wrote:Bit more than fighting, that was. A young lad (a mate of mine) was stabbed by one of Shafiq's friends.

He didn't stab him. The lad that did, Damien Callaghan, got life. I think Shafique got 12 months.reggaereggae wrote:Sickening.

Oh ok. But still, punching an kicking a dying man is hardly great formLenny Cravats wrote:He didn't stab him. The lad that did, Damien Callaghan, got life. I think Shafique got 12 months.reggaereggae wrote:Sickening. Why didn't he get life?Lenny Cravats wrote:

Yes he did. But he was a mirage in the professional ranks.Pugilist-specialist wrote:...who won many national titles. Was then lured away before turning pro. In hindsight not the best move for him.reggaereggae wrote:He was another Ingle mirage....
After he'd left Ingle. So hardly an Ingle mirage.reggaereggae wrote:Yes he did. But he was a mirage in the professional ranks.Pugilist-specialist wrote:...who won many national titles.

I think that's splitting hairs. Ingle talked him up as next big thing and he wasn't.Pugilist-specialist wrote:After he'd left Ingle. So hardly an Ingle mirage.reggaereggae wrote:Yes he did. But he was a mirage in the professional ranks.Pugilist-specialist wrote:

A good mate of mine knew him and rated him very highly. But he did say he was a livewire though.reggaereggae wrote:I remember some weird story about him getting peed off with Ingle, storming up there with a couple of rude boys, and getting chased off by Ingle's two sons.Noxy wrote:That was it, Shafiq!

Don't really know any details, but I'm pretty sure the Ingle bros, big guys and around boxing all their life are pretty hard to intimidate and undoubtedly can fight....

His name was Khalid Shafiq, got his name wrong. I remember now he turned pro in South Africa, was a draw and never fought again. Was a welter, I always though he was heavier.... No wonder he ran out the gym when the Ingle Bros chased him out!
Boxing is a weird game.....
And a young Paul Barns next to himParson Cross wrote:Some of the comments I'm struggling to decide if they're about Daniel or Khalid.
The thread was about Daniel.
Everyone had high hopes for Daniel - he was so light on his feet and a great mover so made for the Ingles.
Not everyone makes it a fact of life.
I'm sure there's a Daniel in most gyms but for some reason Wincobank always seems to be the focus.
He's 32 now still in the Rotherham area and doing ok.

Think he was about 12 here.
