One-armed man harasses Fewkes by Ian McNeilly May 7th 2008

John Fewkes, the unbeaten Sheffield lightweight who challenges for the English title on Saturday, had to take time out from training this week when a one-armed man pinned him in a corner of the ring and demanded answers to his questions. The cripple in question was his stablemate Ross Burkinshaw, complete with a pot on his right arm after shoulder surgery.  The flyweight dislocated his shoulder in February against journeyman Abdul Mougharbel. Fewkes seems in good spirits on the video from the Sheffield Star website.  You can watch the car crash TV interview ('jocular', according to the paper - it is a good laugh, to be fair) here: http://www.thestar.co.uk/boxing/Toughest-ring-challenge-yet-for.4055837.jp
