Women and Booze

There's a quote often attributed to Conteh; an interviewer asks him if the women and booze ruined his career, and he replies "if it hadn't been for the women and booze, I would never have bothered in the first place". I will drink a toast to the first man who can come up with a good source, assuming that he said it. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 17:36, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Really needs editing

This piece has nothing about why Conteh began boxing, much less details of his career. Lotta disjointed GOO here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.199.36.46 (talk) 09:29, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
