whose the most famous boxer you have met ???

Went to the Boxing writers awards, after went to Stringfellows with Gary Mason Colin Mc Millan and Micheal Watson. They were into the swing of things I was in the mood to chill with a drink on my own. They have cubicles, I went to one at the end away from the crowd to be on my own, sat down and out of the shadows this voice said you okay said yes fine, just looking for a bit of peace and qiute. Me to said the voice, spent 30 minutes talking to Marvin Hagler Then he said got to go the wife will wonder where the fuck Ive Got to ;D
