Adam Fogerty (born 6 March 1969) is a British boxer, rugby league player, and actor.

He was born in Oldham, Lancashire. Fogerty's boxing career saw him facing a number of relatively underskilled opponents. He twice faced Paul Lister, with their first meeting in 1989 handing Fogerty his first and only loss in a 6-round decision. He repaid the favor with an 8th round knockout the next year. After ending his boxing career, Fogerty joined the Halifax Blue Sox. He also played for the Warrington Wolves and St Helens. Additionally, Fogerty is the youngest player to play for the Isle of Man rugby team.

He has played "heavy" roles in several films such as Shooting Fish and Played, as well as an unlicensed boxer, Gorgeous George, in the Guy Ritchie crime caper Snatch. He also had a walk-on part as a thug in the soaps Coronation Street and Hollyoaks

Since December 2007, he has run a Fish and Chip shop in Linthwaite, Huddersfield called "Harry Heywoods" which he co-owns with award winning fryer Ian Kioch.[1]
