Description

The autobiography of Lew 'Wild Thing' Yates, the infamous fighter who toppled Roy 'Pretty Boy' Shaw as Guv'nor of the unlicensed boxing ring Everybody in the unlicensed fight game knows that only one man has the honour of being titled 'Guv'nor' - and that man is Lew 'Wild Thing' Yates. They claim that, on the night of the fight, there were at least three cameramen filming the contest yet not one copy of the fight has been found to date.

Yates has made acquaintances with several infamous fighters such as Lenny McLean, Cliff Fields, drug dealer Mickey Green, great train robber, Charlie Wilson, among others. Yates was a boxer who lost his licence for bashing up referees and so began competing in unlicensed fights with underground legends such as Roy Shaw.
