Daggers Posted 11 October 2012 Share Posted 11 October 2012 I was, like, best mates with the Krays. Lovely geezers. Lovely geezers who'd rip your fackin oesophagus out as soon as look at ya. Wonderful boys to their dear Mam, Gawd bless 'er. And you could always leave your fackin door open. Unless you was a jewellery shop in E1 in which case you'd be too busy getting your facking knees blown off to be messin with a fackin door.

One of my boxing pals was managed by Mad Frankie Fraser for a few years. He had a few stories to tell. Ever get the chance read "Bringing down the Krays" written by the guy who dobbed them in, absolutely brilliant insight into them, Ronnie was one sick ****er.

Bettsj2 Posted 11 October 2012 Share Posted 11 October 2012 Can anyone remember the big black ex boxer who used to be on the door at Fusion ? I think it was "Bunny" something I don't think it was Bunny Johnson or Bunny Sterling but it may have been . Do you mean Bonnie Mills? He also did the door at Brannigans?

Steve_Walsh5 Posted 11 October 2012 Share Posted 11 October 2012 Does Chris Pyatt still do the door at Manilla? Last time I went there he was. A lad who I used to work with Adam Spencer tried to fight him but Chris Pyatt went inside. Can't blame him as this lad was well into his bare knuckle fighting.

He's gets it loads I bet, everyone wants to take a pop when they know who you are like that and they realise you are smaller than you look in the ring. Having said I bet not many took a pop at Earnie Shavers, far as I know he still does a lot of the doors up in the North West, now that man could punch. That must piss Pyatt off no end. Former world champ having to put up with that shit. Such a shame. Agreed, tragic stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
