He knew his stuff..like Mohammed Ali, John McEnroe etc.. if you can do it....aint nothing wrong in gobbing off about it...

Northwest music has lost a fighter today.
He did come across as arrogant when on TV, but he was always prepared to put his money were his gob was!
He was just a local Manchester lad I've seen in many times in the 70/80's in the Stretford End at Old Trafford.. dressed scruffy in a very old jacket and wearing a raggy old United scarf.. good lad!
