I was just having a little read up on him and ive noticed he had a lot of early losses in his career, does anybody know why this was?? I have never seen a lot on him before seems like he had a pretty strange career

brendan ingle says Johhny was his biggest success... i think he was just shit when he first started boxing mate and he was a quick learner to become the entertainer we all loved to watch ;D;D;D
weren't some of his losses at heavyweight earlier on in his career? Boxrec isn't working for me.
If ever there was a success story in Boxing, Johnny,s is it. Plus one Hell of a nice guy. From never in a million years, to World Champ.
Very low confidence when he first started out he always used to say he never had the belief that Naz and Ryan Rhodes had but then he turned himself around and Brendan Ingle has said many times that he is his biggest sucess story.
Amazing record
think at the 20 fight stage he`d lost more fights than he`d actually won
Amazing when you think about how succesful he eventually went on to be. Another clear indication for the likes of kevin mitchell that its all a learning curve at this stage in your career
He has been in a few stinkers.
Remember he wanted to fight Tyson when he was here. Nelson would have stunk the place out running.
thanks for the responses everyone, wouldnt mind catching some footage of him
well here is him when he is supporting cancer research in a charity exhibition, not really a serious fight but you can get a hint of his personality in some of these clips. Real hard not to like the guy.
