Rio Ferdinand to become professional boxer at the age of 38

[wavy_blade]

Rio Ferdinand is to attempt to become a professional boxer, it can be revealed. The former Manchester United and England captain will confirm he is taking up the sport at what is being billed as a “major news announcement” on Tuesday afternoon.

Ferdinand will try to follow in the footsteps of Conor McGregor, the Ultimate Fighting Championship star who last month lost to Floyd Mayweather on his boxing debut.

He will also seek to emulate Curtis Woodhouse, the former Sheffield United striker who went on to become British light-welterweight champion.

Is that even safe playing badgers at dominoes don't they carry TB an stuff I'd want one to be cleared with a scrutinous health check before I sat at the same table ...... in my defence I'm sat in the RHH waiting for an ambulance to take us home after spending all morning waiting for one thing or another or put another way I'm bored out of my brains

If David Haye can call himself a boxer then no problem with Rio. Think Haye would run a mile. Biggest boxing disgrace to this country when he came up against Klichko and spent the whole bout running away.
