I stood in front of him and drawled back, 'I don't know, but they call me Richy Horsley,' and then bang, I batter him with a left hook that landed with a strange dull thud.

A normal fighter in the street fights in a different way than a disciplined boxer, but a boxer is from the other world, it's a big difference. A boxer can throw a six-inch punch. A six-inch punch can knock you clean down. I'm very wary of those boxers, I can tell you. If you get a boxer that can street fight and he mixes it together then it makes a lethal combination!

People keep telling me that I'm a legend in Merthyr and a legend in many other places. Here's my understanding on that, what's a legend?

cool like a rebel,
cool like a rhetorical street fighter,

cool like the later protest-and-psychedelic era. — Brian D'Ambrosio
