Absolutely brilliant Shaun , really enjoyed this . What a life he’s lead , very humble genuine man .

[@docholidayproductions]

Joe Calzaghe an all-time great so underrated his skills definitely set him apart I would say a top 10 of all time!

[@razorramon2786]

Totally agree bud . Great boxer . Had everything . Only stopped knocking people out when his hands were busted .

[@cm-oo1td]

@@razorramon2786 never used to wrap his hands as an amateur so suffered latter on

[@Aerojet01]

He beat a few of my favourite fighters, but you're right, he's an all time great and underrated. A complete fighter who could box, brawl, had fast hands and with sold chin.

[@KJJ8518]

Joe & his old man Enzo are boxing legends. Joe is easily in my top 10 of all time great boxers. Such a skilful boxer who was as fresh in the 12th round as he was in the 1st, great engine & a great boxer. RIP Enzo!

[@docholidayproductions]

@@KJJ8518 absolutely man agree 100% Joe pretty much weaponized conditioning his gas tank was not matched by anyone he fought constant barrage of combinations man he really was great...

GOOD LAUGH NICK IS,COULD LISTEN TO HIM ALL DAY............

[@spencerrobertshaw3146]

Good to see Nicky today for the first time in years. I remember him from 30+ years ago and he has always been a nice guy, never caused it always polite and humble. My daughter instantly said when we left "he's a nice man ,very respectful and polite" and that is how I have always known him but it's so long since we had spoken I wasn't sure if he'd remember me but he did and said "your hairs got lighter " about my silver fox hair!! ,always polite and a gentleman

[@kenw89]

Nick manners is the man always enjoy his IFLTV interviews

[@peteearles1937]

Nice back story there. I was brought a up around there. Nicks brother Rick (Ricky Thompson) Manners was my pal at Brownhill school when we were little boys. It’s kind of funny that he was my best pal at school and his colour didn’t come into it at all! We’re we’re pals. End of. !!! All I remember is a happy kid. ❤️Glad to see you’re doing well Nick.

[@nostromo2871]

The bit about the teachers not giving enough time to take stuff in i can completely relate to. i fucked about too much in school, wasted a lot of time trying to get people to like me by acting like a fanny when i was young but half of it was just because the teachers would make me feel like an idiot for not learning at the same pace as others and then they move on to something else and i haven't taken in the previous shit and that effects me for the rest of the year, so i just fell behind and that just encouraged me to take the piss more.. i remember handing in a maths test once and the only thing i wrote on it was my name because i couldn't understand any of the questions... i don't know what its like now but im 32 and when i was at school half my life ago the teachers were useless and had zero compassion or enthusiasm to help kids learn, almost felt like some of them took great joy in watching me fail

Me too it was like that for me at school too and I'm no dummy neither.

[@jojonesjojo8919]

@@nostromo2871 it's really not like that. The teachers (today at least) are under unbelievable pressure and teaching is a bloody hard job. They try and teach as best as they can against a classroom full of kids, some of whom are real jokers. I doubt any teacher would enjoy to see you fail, but they probably just thought, well most kids get it and that's the best I can do. I agree the system is not so good, but teachers are good people doing their best.

Viv graham was one of the main men in back in the day , Lee Duffy wasn’t looking for him that hard he wasn’t that hard to find. They got rid of him because he was clamping down on certain people doing what they were doing in the pubs he was asked to look after , it’s not rocket science , he was small with a big chest and from what I knew of him he was sound .
