    Good luck with this Billy.

    What's the plans for tickets, to keep them as cheap as possible to get bums on seats or to dress prices up with 3 course meals or a finger buffet?

    I know this one is at Bellahouston so know the answer but it's a dig at Alex's shows.

    the prices for the show are £40 £60 £100 that's really in line with most shows, I beleive most of our shows will be public but we also have a hotel were we can hold a show with possibly 3/4 fights, although we'd only go with maybe 250/300 in attendance

    £100? Seriously?

    Small hall shows are an absolute rip-off. You can pay £150 for VIP at Matchroom shows.

    It's not a dig at Billy, just a general observation.

    Kieran Smith is a good fighter the rest are poor. If you'd signed Josh Taylor,Reece Mcfadden or Charlie Flynn it would have been worthy of making a thread but with that list I don't think so.

    I like Keiron, is very skilled, well schooled and has loads of experience but might take a wee bit of adapting to the professional game but if he can sit down a bit more on his shots then he could do very well.

    Who will be training him?

    He's pretty local to you, have you spoke to him about training at your gym with you?

    Every time I have watched him I have been bored to death, horrible negative style. Fail to see what attributes he has to alter this.

    That is the main thing he will need to change but he is very skilled and used his attributes well. I thought the same about Conner Law to be fair but since turning over he has worked very hard to alter his amateur style to one more suited and is now pretty exciting.
