Powerful boxer during a time when the domestic heavyweight scene was a lot more competitive than it is now.
Always scares me to cycle on the road in London.

RIP. My father played cricket against him nearly 20 years ago during a charity match and Mason was a really nice bloke. He had time to chat to everyone and signed loads of autographs for kids. Poor bloke, thoughts to his family.

RIP Gary
He was unfortunate to be around when the great Lennox Lewis was around.IMO would have beaten Haye

I met him once too, he was in a hurry but stopped to chat to me and a friend when we said we were Boxing fans, had a photo taken with my mate too.
