Could have been a world champion but for damage to his right hand which by the time he fought Sibson, could barely throw in anger without pain.
Huge West Ham and ICF Following back in the day and would often be seen down our local east ham working mans club, at the back of the Boleyn, shadow boxing with the kids and had time for everyone young and old , always with half a lager in his hand, Terry McCann style.
A gentleman. and old school to the bone.
i slung this up on twitter when i heard about this awful news yesterday, Forget the fight... It's all about mark meeting his new born son for the first time the morning after the tony sibson fight.
RIP Mark. A Warrior in extremis.
35 minutes in..

I didn’t realise poor Errol Christie is long gone. Kaylor had cracking fights with him and Herol Graham. We were spoiled then for entertainment and didn’t know it.

RIP Mark Kaylor
But your message Discodroids referenced the old East Ham Workings Man Club which brought back great memories of some great nights out in there with my wife's family (all from Canning Town). Used to have Double Diamond on draft in big old pint jugs. Brilliant
Discodroids do you know a QPR fan called Andy who lives in Leigh-On-Sea?

Yep great memories.!. my first pint of double diamond was knocked back in the club while dancing around 3 sheets to Col Abrahams 'Trapped'. My Uncle Kenny Bell was the manager for a few years until it was knocked down in 2019 , he was also interviewed by Panorama about the club!
According to Kenny and his Jazzmen, it has reopened again this year built under a new block of flats which was stipulated in the contract for the rebuild.
It won't be the same of course.. all that local history and culture entombed under souless Taylor Wimpey breezeblock meccano and legoland.
It kills me to see what men in chalk stripe suits and yellow coats have done to the Boleyn Ground.
Never met a QPR supporter in 8 years of living in Leigh on Sea!

Well my good friend Andy has lived in Leigh-on-Sea for a good few years after moving out from Ilford, Hornchurch and Brentwood. Quite a few R's out that way

similar path to me..
East Ham-Newbury park- Chadwell heath- Hornchurch- Brentwood- North Chingford -Leigh on sea. If he uses the broadway pub or the Constitutional club ,our paths must have crossed for sure.
If Andy wants to make himself known to me for a pint, I've gone from looking like Gary webster from 'Minder' in my 20's and 30's to 'Grouty' from 'Porridge' in my 50's.

When I see him next I will mention there is a fellow Leigh-on-Sea Rangers fan and see if he is ok with sharing his contact details with you over DM. I am sure he visits this site when he is not travelling the world.
We are both in our middle to late 50's as well, so good chance you might recognize us from home and away games in the past.
