Jon Thaxton is a former British lightweight champion who boxed the likes of Ricky Hatton, Eamonn Magee, Emanuel Augustus, Yuri Romanov, Jon Murray and Paul 'Scrap Iron' Ryan. He worked with Brendan Ingle and Norwich stalwart Graham Everett, became close to Herbie Hide, Naseem Hamed – whom he served as a sparring partner for – and Johnny Nelson, and now he works changing the quality of people's lives through health and fitness in Norwich. Thaxton is a great talker and wonderful storyteller.
