Me, being from the USA, have no idea who you are talking about, but I am interested in anyone who switches careers. It takes more courage than most of us have, especially if you've had a successful first career. You said, "never in a million years", is that because he had a great career playing cricket, or he may be a little old to start boxing, or maybe you just can't picture him as a boxer? With Barry McGuigan in his corner, I'm thinking he's off to a good start! Keep us posted, it's the kind I like.
