The ex-WBO middleweight and super-middleweight champion was approaching a Barclays branch in Edgware Road yesterday when the thief ran up from behind him, ripped the £400 brown bag from under his arm and fled.

The bag contained items including a bandana he wore on ITV’s I’m a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!, ID for his role as a city marshal in Opelousas, Louisiana and a quarter of a bar of chocolate.
