Step into the heart of 1990s Liverpool, a city divided by race, crime, and territorial disputes. This gripping documentary uncovers the tragic events that unfolded after the fatal street execution of David Ungi—a beloved family man and former boxing champion—whose murder ignited one of the most violent gangland feuds in Liverpool’s history.
We delve into the background of racial tensions stemming from the Toxteth riots, explore the rise of underworld figures like Johnny Phillips, and analyze the tit-for-tat attacks that left a lasting scar on the city. With never-before-heard accounts, this is the definitive look at how a single pub disagreement spiraled into a brutal street war.

Another great story bro, sad world we are living in , YNWA, 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪⚖️❓
Sad, No need fir David to be shot over a fist fight. Against someone twice his size, even withva knuckle duster.. No need for anyone to DIE
So Phillips starts shootings and wants police protection after he is shot yeah let him rot In hell
Bobble mohamd kamara took after jacko in his silver seira lazer after killing David, I seen it all
How did uni win the golden gloves it's an American amateur championship?
Ego…
I was working as a medic in the buzz when all this was going on (im not from liverpool or connected to either side) it was certainly an eye opener, i met people from both sides and most were friendly and treated me with respect, kept me out the way if it looked like anything might happen, it was a friends house in heswall used in the opening scene of shooters, the guy who gets murdered at the beginning later died in a motorcycle accident.
There is no inequality or police racism is there?
Our government has just imported useless people.
He never had knuckle dusters that's a fact !
After first attempt c u later im gone its obvious not gunna leave it at that warning signs were there fuk me
I got a lift from Johnny Phillips once in his M3 bmw. I was hanging around with a gang of doormen from the Quadrant Park night club at the time. I was 15 and beginning to do errands for them and also steal for some of them. After about a year of this i was asked to hide a gun for one of them and had to get out of the city before it was too late for me. So i did and moved to North Wales. I dodged a bullet for sure as most of those guys were killed over petty shit.
I lived on horth hilly back then, I remember looking down the street and hundreds of people was out and my neighbor told me Davy ungi has been shot, after that day it was never the same it started a race war I was going to high school carrying weapons because we was all scared u didn't kniw what was gona happen it went on for years
Violence breeds violence sadly. The old saying “He who lives by the sword will perish by the sword”.
Rubbish.
You never mentioned the yardie hitmen who done hungi, were murderd immeditaly when they got back to kingston. Warren had organised the hit on hungie an the guys he paid to do it.. fukin ruthless warren. All this is recorded on the phone an parts were released. I herd say he had em killed, an his white right hand man replied " Fukin mad in it" phillips lost that straitner, its sad he couldnt just accept he lost the straitner..
What a life, I can sleep easy at night. I don't get scared when someone randomly knocks on my door.
Live by the sword, die by the sword. I lived a stones throw away from where Davy Ungi was shot when this happened. I remember hearing the gunshots and then seeing people running up the street on that Monday night. In the days that followed there was plenty of tension in the area for sure.
Johnny had some kis locked in a cage every night until he got back and bummed the shit out of him .FACT. 1 HORRIBLE RAT 🐀
👍👍👍👍👍👍 big thumbs up.
I went to school with David Ungi, was in the same class as him. It said that Tony was his oldest Brother, he wasn't. Joey Ungi was the oldest. To be fair, all three of the Ungi Brothers that I knew were all good lads in school, never in any trouble and they would look out for the younger lads.
Remember this, wild time back in Liverpool, seemed like someone get shot every day, armed Police everywhere.
