    Proper boxing fans go to Frank's shows.

    Tweed jackets and Essex birds go to Matchroom shows for a night out.

    Boxing fans get very passionate.

    It's just coked up wannabe boxers and Essex twats. Nothing against Essex twats but chinos shirt, tassle loafers and a tweed jacket with a few grams up your hooter dont make you a boxer

    It was one fight.

    Barely worth mentioning.

    What show was it when Warren put a Millwall lad against a West Ham lad, or something along those lines ?

    You are going to get your fair share of idiots at any boxing show sadly but it does seem weird that it happens far more often at Warren shows than matchroom. I doubt Warren actively encourages it but its happened way more

    It happens at matchroom shows too but they pay for decent security who sort it out quickly. At Warren shows when it erupts it really goes off. This weeknd was actually better than most

    It's not weird at all or strange at all. Frank goes cheap on security and gets what he pays for.

    That was fans of McCracken and Foster rioting during a Benn fight in 1994.

    Almost got Frank sacked off from ITV.

    More trouble at horse racing these days - creeping back in for the football as well pre match.

    Heard it started because one guy found out he bought a ticket three times the value for the same seat this Sat for the pay per pudding Whyte Card. Seething with rage I heard when he realised he had been conned.

    PS - if you wanna see a fan fight, search for the brawl in that Essex pub after last orders when AJ got turned over. You know, the one where that lad had a gaping hole glassed out of his face.

    I’ve never been to the O2 and not been in the thick of numerous drunken punch ups... that include FW, Matchroom and Haymaker shows

    Tigthen up the searches. If they can minimise the packet coming in then it would likely help to reduce trouble slightly.

    Maybe have sections for fighters fans in the shows
