    Something illegal? In BOXING?!

    Oh say it isn't so! Next you'll be telling me the fight game is full of (gulp) mafia connections!

    We can only hope we see a mini miracle and Lara causes a huge upset.

    I told somebody to bet on a decision coz I'd never heard of it, and it's Josh Warrington. I hope we're hear a while and it's a great fight. But I'm a realist and that's probably not gonna happen.

    I checked Lara's boxrec and saw he was KOed in one by Eliot Chavez two years ago. My dad told me this guy was an undefeated KO artist. :lol:

    Warrington ends this whenever he wants to, probably in the first 3 rounds.

    Also, I take a shot inbetween each round for these fights. I hope we're hear for the full twelve, and that there's miraculously another twelve rounder shortly after.

    Nope. But you are asking me to believe that Matchroom would place at risk a business worth multiple millions for a Zelfa Barret fight. Which one is more rediculous.

    I don't even think anyone gets paid. I just think that's "the way it is" in certain territories and the tradition continues. Germany, Vegas, England, "that's the way it is, he's our fighter." Out for dinner three nights running the night before the fight, big Eddie first night, people he introduced them to the second and third night, "never tried it this dram? 85 bucks a pop no wonder, but tell you what, it's on Eddie so we'll be cheeky and have one."

    "Yeah, our fighter, he's our lad, nice lad, comes from a great family, means a lot for him this fight."

    "Yeah, we'd love to have you back again, weird these fight camps it's the right kind of man you need, steaks again tonight is it?"

    By fight night it's "Kiko who?"

    The idea that there's no corruption in boxing, or the idea that a major corporation indulges in it?

    Hmmmmmm
