Exceptionally talented amateur who just didn't have the whiskers for a top flight pro career. His fight with Kaylor was one of the all time great British dust-ups.
Christie's biography is also one of the best Boxing books around.

Yes, the Kaylor fight was proper nasty.

What a fight, haven't watched it in years, think I've still got the VHS of it up the loft that I recorded off tv at the time. The hype behind it was massive and it lived up to it and more. A lot of racial tension surrounding the fight as well, not helped when they got into a brawl in a car park at a pre-fight press conference. Sadly, this was as good as it got for Christie when so much was expected of him.
