Description

King of the Journeymen is the ultimate story of sporting redemption. In and out of prison as a teenager for robbery and assault, Peter Buckley used boxing to turn his life around, testing prospects and future world champions in the ring for 19 years and 300  bouts. Never one to turn down a fight, he fought doggedly for a better life.
