    It was badly run event from having nowhere to use the bog apart from the bins in the lobby:patsch as the toilets in the arena couldn't handle the amount of people. The seating plan for some people was a joke they couldn't see anything with the thousands of people walking past all the time a lot left before the end because of it, security was not existent it was a good night of boxing I go to a lot of shows but this was was bad, matchroom wouldn't have stood for that what did you guys think whom went?
    :think

    To be fair to Mick his shows also look well run (on a much smaller scale bar the Fury/Rogan fight). You can even get a pint of milk from the Bluewater on your way home. It's win/win.

    This is what happens when you try to fit way too many people in a space not designed for it, should have postponed it and booked the O2 at the next available date or just stick to 10k - theres a bloody good reason why nobody has tried getting that many people in there, could have been far far worse

    Will the O2 entertain a Queensberry show after last night? Why hasn't Frank run a show there since DeGale/Groves? Who will Fury fight? So many ifs.

    Did something happen that night? Can only assume he hasn't as he hasn't got the fighters for shows that big anymore?

    It was a joke some guy lying in a pool of blood while security were watching the fights in the ring leaving two paramedics and 1 copper to it

    Nothing happened as I recall. It was the Cleverly fight where around 17 people pulled out.

    I'm sceptical if the O2 would entertain Frank unless he gave assurances that the night will end at say midnight.

    Didn't Froch Kessler end around 1am? They've been perfectly happy having matchroom shows there since then, must be more to it

    I think Wa##en and whomever else are lucky that nothing major kicked off Saturday it would have been uncontrollable and no one was getting searched because they didn't have the man power
