One of the greatest unfulfilled talents of Welsh sporting history.

Very exciting fighter with a huge heart, saw him beating Peter Harrison and Terry Waller for his two ABA titles (should have been three) and climbing off the floor three times to beat Nigeria's big hitting Anthony Andeh in the 1970 Commonwealth Games, when he got a Silver (robbed of a Gold). The Andeh fight was so exciting BBC showed it three times!
