Some record, 610 wins from 634 fights. You wouldn`t have wanted to fall out with his family, he was one of 18 kids and there was a few boxing champions among his siblings

There was of course National Service back in his day. At one point he was RAF champion, one of his brothers Royal Navy champ and another one British Army champ!
