THE BIRD MAN OF ANCOATS | BOXING COACH STEVE MAYLETT INTRODUCES US TO HIS OTHER SPORT PIGEON RACING!

[@thomasg3913]

Great little documentary, would love to see more videos like this 👍

[@leeferguson6090]

My dad passed away 5 years.ago. He raced pigeons and in his final years become a winner and loved his sport. Brought a few tears on that video thinking about him on race day which meant so much to him. Fantastic documentary.

[@2.fresh767]

My dad and both his brothers are pigeon fanciers, can’t send them to Europe anymore due to us not being in the EU. Pigeon men are a breed on their own.

Great documentary, im still not sure how it works though, so the pigeons go back to the place they was born, like the owners home ? Or do they go somewhere else after the race

[@BoxingNowChannel]

Thank you glad you enjoyed it! Yes Jim they fly back to the loft they were born in and live 👍

[@jimferry6539]
