    Watching my dads Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis documentaries around 2000. Before that I had only seen a few fights. I really started getting into boxing, when Amir Khan won the silver, and was on ITV around 2004.

                  my first memory was Eubank V Calzaghe. it was kind of a big deal in my area. I live in Blackwood which is a town next to Newbridge and I have family from my mothers side from Newbridge.

                  Other memories include tyson.
