He's a great guy was a very nice and stylish boxer. I loved in the Geale fight how he got up off the canvas in the 6th Round and ended up trading away with Geale until the bell ! I'll always remember him walking back to his corner after that round with his arms raised as if to say, "Come on then let's have it." Brilliant.
