Always did wonder that

iv not heard him hyped much at all tbh but the fact that hes only 20 surly means he can progress in a lackluster h.w division

reason i asked is because i was looking at that british boxing is dead thread and i seen someone mention him with khan and froch

i was thinking really? he only had six fights

His father did. They're a gypsy family and his dad was one of these traveller fighters.
When he was born, Mike Tyson was champ and obviously daddy named jr after Iron Mike himself.

A giant clumsy Manc gypsy is just what the HW division needs............
