Marty Jones was born on the 13th December 1953 in Oldham, Lancashire and knew from the age of six years old that he wanted to be a professional wrestler. Little did Marty know at this time however, just what he would go on to achieve in the wrestling business and the legacy that he would leave behind him. He made his wrestling debut in 1972 as an 18-year-old. He won his first singles championship on 12 November 1976 when he defeated "Rollerball" Mark Rocco for the British Light Heavyweight Championship. This was to be the start of a long and heated feud with Rocco, whom Jones also defeated for his British Heavy-Middleweight title only to immediately vacate the belt due to already holding a heavier British title. Marty Jones has a heart as big as a lion and wears it proudly on his sleeve. He is a serial fundraiser for numerous charities and always champions local sports, clubs, people and businesses. He has recently suffered from a string of injuries, dating back to his professional wrestling career, but has recently undergone ground breaking treatment to try and alleviate the discomfort. Listen to him talk about his life, family, career and what the future holds for this true Gentleman! #MartyJones #Wrestling #WWE #WWF #GiantHaystacks #BigDaddy #ITV #WorldOfSport #RollerballRocco #Oldham #Champion
