    Henry was asked who would have won between him and Bartley in their prime and without hesitation he said me, I’ve heard very influential travelling men say Bartley was unbeatable in his prime. They even put big money on him. No doubt Henry was tough but Bartley was 52. Good luck to all that choose this game but Bartley at 30 was the man

    His book was the first book I ever read about a fighting man in the true crime section of W.H.Smith as a teen, but i must say he looks alot better than i thought he would at the age he is now cos he looked pretty rough and ready in the book. I also thought he would have had a a thick Irish accent for some reason, didn't expect him to have a cockney accent! 😅. Great interview 👍🏼

    I met Jimmy at the IVY LEAF working mens club In UXBRIDGE in 2011, it was crazy coincidence because I had just finished reading his book a few days before and even had it in my car, so I went and grabbed it to show him. We played pool and drank all day and he had a lot of people wanting to be around him out of respect. He was quiet and didn't talk down to anyone or try to intimidate anyone. He was funny too, if I remember correctly, we were all putting money in a jar or whatever and getting the rounds out of that. Jimmy if you are reading this, does that sound about right?

    We all would love to see Tyson give a serious lesson to Jake Paul or honestly which ever brother it is... Tyson needs to finish him in 2 rounds,3 at most otherwise he may burn out his engine...his opponent,in my opinion is nothing spectacular but is over half his age and from what I believe can enter the fight at any weight he achieves, but Tyson has to be a particular weight...I believe it is all a script to be followed and failure to follow it will void his payment....that UA-camr has been professionally trained for probably at least 4/6 years... Only beaten by the worst boxing opponent ever, young relative of fury....a celebrity TV star from love island...I hear there are even unequal requirements for boxing gloves weight and size...it's like a WWF wrestling script...all designed to get a rematch or a bigger draw like a smash up with the Likes of McGregor or even Mayweather...be honest Tommy fury is let's say an unremarkable boxer..they say Jake Paul fights in and around 200 lbs .. hell of a lot heavier than McGregor or Mayweather. In my opinion it's a circus act and really demeaning of the proper boxing set up
