  • Resumen

  • Crawford Ashley is one of Britains best Light-Heavyweight champions of modern times. He is a former British, Commonwealth and European champion. He fought 7 world champions in his career and fought for 3 world titles at 3 different weights. In this episode, Crawford opens up about some tough times during his school days in the 1970's. His amateur career was glittered with titles at British schoolboy and junior level, yet he never got the recognition from the English selectors to represent his country. We go in depth about his professional career including his days in Belfast as part of that successful Eastwoods stable during the early 1990's. Crawford tells stories of training with some of the best fighters in the world, taking fights at short notice and how he became disillusioned with his management at the time. His world title contests against great fighters, Michael Nunn and Virgil Hill are discussed, as well as his domestic dust ups with Nicky Piper, Jimmy Peters and Clinton Woods amongst others. I find out how difficult life has been for Crawford since retirement and how an almost deadly motorbike accident changed his path in life. Crawford now has the love for boxing back as his son, Theo embarks on his own boxing journey. Crawford speaks from the heart and doesn't shy away from telling it how he see's it. This is an episode not to be missed.
