The smartly dressed men looked a far cry from their heyday.

Once famed for his pretty boy looks, 64-year-old Mickey’s career in boxing and botched plastic surgery to repair the damage has dramatically altered his appearance over the years.

Talking about his changing face, Mickey has admitted: “I had my nose broken twice. I had five operations on my nose and one on a smashed cheekbone.

“I had to have cartilage taken from my ear to rebuild my nose and a couple of operations to scrape out the cartilage because the scar tissue wasn’t healing properly.

“Most of it was to mend the mess of my face because of the boxing, but I went to the wrong guy to put my face back together.”
