    No but there was extracts of Egan's book serialised in the Sunday World.

    Basically he was lining up women every night for one night stands, and using his facebook account to hook himself up. Also he said that hours before he was about to fight in the Olympic final he was watching porn on his laptop and Paddy Barnes walked in asked him what he was doing watching porn before the biggest fight of his life - no doubt there much have plenty of banter thrown after that:lol:

    Lads,

    Let me begin by saying that I think fury's a very likeable lad and very good for the sport, particularly the hw division. Pajkic, moreover, is a decent journeyman. But after finally watching Saturday's fight, I have to say that fury is damn lucky that pajkic has only five ko's. Ffs, is anyone training the lad? He has an awful habit of dropping his right everytime he throws a jab, and if pajkic had a left hook, he would have finished him. What's the story with his training? Steward still in the picture at all?

    Yeah, all on the card. It's a dinner black-tie show, live on Boxnation, and will be around 400 tickets on sale for it.

    Yeah semi pro is a term I have heard here in Belfast about unlicenced boxing. Sandy Rice from Bangor runs several of these shows a year, and they are always well attended and supposedly good entertainment. Irish boxers on facebook is trying to convince me that it is licenced but not with the BBBofC or BUI, which of course makes it unlicenced but I'm going round in circles here:nut. Needless to say I wont be going now.

    Makes no sense, why not do it in Dublin? If ****** was serious about promoting these lads surely it should be in Dublin. How are they expected to build a fan base at black tie shows in liverpool. Dublin boxing fans are crying out for a show, surely it would have done well at the stadium and they could have had spike v fitzy on the card. By the time this show comes around boxnation will no longer be free to air so how many people are actually going to see this.
