Julius Francis is already the Sports Personality of the Year
If you haven’t already seen the video of retired heavyweight Julius Francis – who once fought Mike Tyson – knocking out an unpleasant punter at Boxpark Wembley, then we urge you to watch it now.
Little tip for any young lads out there thinking of playing the "big man" – make sure one of the bouncers you're threatening isn't a former European Heavyweight champion.

Since his knockout victory, both the police and Boxpark have sided with Julius, and public clamour is growing for the 57-year-old to come out of retirement for an exhibition fight.
Someone even updated his Wikipedia page to include the knockout of “Blue DuRag Man” on his professional boxing record.
As for Blue DuRag Man himself, last we heard he was still on the pavement outside the food market. Hopefully he’s got some smelling salts in his hand bag.
