Rowing star Eric Murray will be heading back to his day job a little the worse for wear today after surviving three rounds in the boxing ring against Manu the Beast Vatuvei.
Murray deserves kudos for taking on the fearsome Vatuvei when no one in rugby's ranks put their hand up but his efforts won't exactly go down in the annals of great charity boxing bouts.
With Murray dutifully clutching his gloves to his face and dancing from side to side, it was more a case of run for your life than Fight for Life.
"That's really what we did in training," Murray said. "Look at my muscles. I don't have anything compared to that guy [Vatuvei]."
The rower did manage to land a couple of right-hand leads but the rest of the fight involved Vatuvei stalking his opponent and tatooing him with hefty blows.
