Is Rio really a boxing novice?
Former Manchester United power coach has told 5 live that Rio Ferdinand used to box in his football days and can "pack a punch".
Mick Clegg told 5 live Breakfast’s Rachel Burden that Rio had a “fantastic jab” when he boxed with the likes of Wayne Rooney and Roy Keane as part of the club’s fitness training regime.
However Clegg believes Rio’s lack of experience in the ring will show when he attempts to turn professional: “The problem for Rio is his body has not adapted as yet to taking shots”.
