    Do the strictly come dancing gig. Push yourself to get a perfect 40 score but stay out of the boxing ring.

    You don’t ask Eddie Hearn for £200 to cover the taxi bill to Barry Hearns birthday bash. It’s wishful thinking you saying his loaded, he’s a terrible business man and a big spender, that tells you everything about his finances

    Why wouldn’t you? They invited Eubank, he didn’t invite himself. Eubank put them on the map.

    Thankfully, I think the Holyfield-Belfort debacle brought these old geezers to their senses.

    Pride ? Self respect ? The moves of a man on his backside. It’s quite obvious he gets handouts off Jnr

    Belfort Benn should be fixed up instead.

    He wouldn’t have much self-respect or pride to pay that taxi fare. That’s why he didn’t pay it. They asked him to come, not the other way round. He would’ve been the biggest name and figure there, and you expect him to pay his own taxi fare out his own pocket.... ummm, ok.

    Bulldog, your as cheap as your hero. I wouldn’t go if I had to ask for taxi fare. You don’t pay people to go to your party ffs

    I think he asked for an appearance fee as well. He was going out of his way, after all.
