Season 2: #38 Alex Arthur

Jun 07, 2020, 03:01 PM

Super Scot Alex Arthur won British, Commonwealth, European and world honours but his career didn't reach the heights he had hoped.

Arthur boxed the likes of Willie Limond, Ricky Burns, Kobo Gogoladze and many more but missed out on the big nights and the big fights with the likes of Joan Guzman and Marco Antonio Barrera that he craved.

Arthur now trains his sons but here talks about his dramatic battles with the scales, with Michael Gomez and with retirement – as well as his friendship with Scott Harrison – as he reflects on the wonderful highs and dramatic lows.
