This guys an absolute legend... Newton trained me back in early 80s down the gym in easton/St Paul's area, I stuck at it for a while, and built up my physic, but not to Newton's size, he was small in height but absolutely big in every way.. I'm now Sheffield based, & when I see young people on social media achieve a weight treble there weight, it reminds me of Newton teaching me the clean n jerk or 'The Snatch', and these kids will go along way if they keep to it, I regret not keeping to it, rather than take up Boxing, but when your a young white kid from a middle class background in Whitefield comp you had to do what you had to do to keep safe....

The last I heard, Newton was running a food stall at a market in Bristol, called 'Newton Neutron Clean And Jerk Chicken'. He places himself in front of the stall doing air clean and jerks to drum up business.
