Product Description
Product Description
FOREWORD By Roy 'Pretty Boy' Shaw The Original Guv nor I'm honoured to be asked to write the foreword about such a special fighter and humble man. People often ask me, "Roy, who was the real Guv'nor, you or Lenny Mclean? They usually end up confused because I always reply Cliff Field! Lenny Mclean wouldn't come into it because he was knocked spark out by Cliff twice! For the size of the man, Cliff had hand speed like a middleweight; nobody on the unlicensed scene could have lasted with Cliff. Myself & my great pal Tel Currie visited Cliff a few times in recent years and he wanted me to sign a photo for him. I signed it 'To the REAL Guv'nor!' I shall tell you something, I would never have fought Cliff, mainly because he was just too big but he didn't move like a heavyweight but he certainly punched like one. He would have destroyed all the unlicensed fighters of that time. Some real idiots have claimed to be the best unlicensed fighter of that time but the fact is Cliff was the man! He has not been in the best of health lately but I'm sure that warrior spirit will bring him through. Enjoy the book; it's about time the great man's book was written. Respect Roy 'Pretty Boy' Shaw
About the Author
It is with regret that we announce that Cliff Field passed away days after suffering a stroke. Cliff s health had been in decline for some years but he kept on fighting the good fight. Our thoughts are with those nearest to Cliff and I m sure many will agree that it is a sad day to see yet another unsung legend from yesteryear pass away. A book on Cliff had been in the making for over a decade, with a bumpy ride for all those that were involved from a handwritten manuscript being burnt in a house fire, to unofficial releases being stopped before publication. New Breed was honoured to be asked to step in and compile the official telling of Cliff s life armed with notes on scrap paper and limited avenues to research, it took us almost 2 years to piece it altogether. Cliff never got to see the finished product as this book was sent to print on the same day Cliff passed away. We hope we have done him proud with this offering. R.I.P CLIFF FIELD 03.06.43 31.10.10

Id never heard about Cliff until i was doing research on Lenny McLean, then when i noticed this book i just had to buy it. Cliff Field comes across as a nice quiet man - who was fearless!! I throroughly enjoyed the book - specifically where it goes into detail where he sparks Lenny - TWICE!
