    The Beeb have just posted this article regarding the promotional landscape change in British boxing. Proper old hat, they could do with just dropping the boxing page, clearly do not care about the sport. Those quotes have been doing the rounds for the best part of a year.

    BBC dont give two shits about boxing, their involvement ended with the joke Fraudly, they might aswell go the full way and not bother covering it at all cause everything they post is old news or crap

    The author of this piece (Ben Dirs) is such a: lazy, comfortable and cliched journalist.

    Bollox isn't it, make us look like a bunch of ******s at every opportunity. Middle class ****suckers. Can't wait to get caught with no license then we shall all enjoy a trip to the European courts.
