Gary Stretch

Hailing from St Helens, boxer Gary Stretch, a former A.B.A champion, British Light Middleweight Champion and World championship contender has made a successful transition into the world of film.

Perhaps his finest performance to date is his appearance as a small time gangster in Shane Meadows' superb 'Dead Mans Shoes' but hopefully, there'll be plenty more to come.
