Description:
Jimmy Tibbs is a British boxing icon.
A former fighter, he made his name as one of the great trainers, working the corner of notables including Michael Watson, Nigel Benn, Frank Bruno, Lloyd Honeyghan, Mark Kaylor, Charlie Magri and countless others.
But his life away from the ring has been equally interesting. After a long prison sentence for settling a gangland family feud, he turned to training, became a born again Christian, battled cancer and he still works in the corner as a cutsman.
