Ken Buchanan

The story of Edinburgh's Ken Buchanan is full of talent - tainted with heartache. The Lightweight Champion of the World lit up the lives of many during the early 70s. He lost his world crown to Roberto Duran in controversial circumstances. At the age of 50, 23 years after the fight in NYC Ken when back to hunt out Duran. He couldn't find him. They were reunited after 38 years last summer at the WBC Night of Champions event.
