    Barry McGuigan: A life of incredible sporting victories and bitter personal lows

    The ‘Clones Cyclone’ Barry McGuigan wasn’t just a world champion fighter, for many he was a symbol of hope and resilience through some of Ireland’s toughest years during the Troubles. In recent years though, things have been fraught for McGuigan outside of the ring. He’s faced the devastating loss of his daughter Danika in 2019, and an extremely messy legal battle with his former boxing protege Carl Frampton. Nearly 40 years on from the pinnacle of his sporting career, the Irish boxer is now a contestant on this year's I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! Host: Kevin Doyle.
