Terry Marsh Interview Part I: ‘I am a fighter, not a writer’
Terry Marsh’s life can accurately be described as tumultuous. He went from schoolboy chess tournaments, through to boxing - via the Royal Marines and the fire service - and he then became famous during the 1980’s as the IBF light-welterweight champion of the world. Throw into that mix a career as a bookie, a bit-part TV career, early days spent on a building site and learning to speak Italian ‘out of sheer boredom’ whilst on remand for the attempted murder of promoter Frank Warren in 1989, a charge Marsh was acquitted of in 1990.
