    I think McDonagh is a c*nt but this is ridiculous. AJ could physically skullf*ck an opponent at a weigh in whilst injecting himself with trenbolone and he still wouldn't be banned for eight months.

    Not the first time he’s caused trouble at a weigh in

    Shocking ban totally unfair. Another Peter Fury fighter getting treated differently my authorities compared to others up for similar offences.

    There must be more to this, he has done this sort of things before I believe so I have to assume he was warned if he did it again he'd get a lengthy ban.

    Even so, Eight months is completely disproportionate in my opinion, when you think about Antonio Margarito getting a 12 month ban for having plater in his gloves then 8 months for a push at a weigh in does seem a little excessive.

    Especially when they know that boxer is turning 40 next birthday it makes it an even worse decision. Don't get me wrong I think he deserved punished but not a ban let alone an 8 month one. Should have made him go and teach kids boxing at clubs around the country for a couple of weeks with him himself having to pick up associated costs as punishment.

    He says he's never been up in front of board on any issues previously has never been warned about his conduct in the 16 years he's been licensed of the BBBoC.

    McDonagh isn't licensed by the BBBoC, which may be a contributory factor in the length of the ban.

    Well if that's the case then there is something seriously wrong here.

    How much of a ban did Chisora get for stating that he wanted to "physically shoot" Haye?

    Complete joke of a ban- fine the guy by all means but don't take away his earning potential for basically just a shove.
