    I don't think so, I could be wrong but I can remember them on Sky raving about him when he was still unknown, he was just this strange looking pale mancunian who ended up crippling people with body shots every other week

    He had a WBU Warren title and wanted more than just to defend that every other time and then jumped to sky to get the kostya fight I think.

    he may have moved to ITV for a brief time but I can't really remember that, he was certainly on sky first though, especially if they televised his 4th pro fight

    You could be right he could have been a sky fighter. He built a massive fan base and thought it was because of mainstream tv. Pretty amazing to do it that way.

    My granddad was a boxer and had a few amatuer fights, i only met him a few times, and my dad was boxing for fun when he was younger, cause i didnt get to know my granddad when i was real young i thought i pick up boxing so we had atleast some connection or something to talk about when i would met him.

    I always thought Muhammad Ali was great, then I was a naughty child and got given a curfew for a long time. The only place I was allowed to be after 5pm was the boxing gym ..... so I joined in, loved it and ended up representing their amateur team. 55 fights and a 12 year amateur career means I loved the sport, and those who have the guts to step into the ring competitively, and still do
