This week we look back at one of our favourite characters ever.

Albert Griffiths, or ‘Young Griffo’ began life in the slums of Sydney, as leader of a local gang. This proved to be the perfect training for boxing, and before he was twenty he was the World Featherweight Champion.

Moving to the United States, Young Griffo would go on to be one of the greatest boxers of all time, despite never training and almost never fighting sober.

In a career spanning 232 fights, Girffo would only lose nine, despite multiple arrests, stints in jail and various asylums.

We're doing two live Sports Bizarre podcasts in Melbourne this February. Tickets on sale now.
