    I quite like Ben Schlong. He picks up too much grief.

    4 days till Boxxer's event in Bournemouth. https://boxrec.com/en/event/858763
    Joe Pigford vs TBA
    Frazer Clarke vs TBA
    Hassan Azim vs TBA
    Mikael Lawal vs TBA

    The main event is decent. Too bad Billam-Smith is so boring.

    Hope TBA is a fit lad, he’s got a busy night ahead of him.

    You just hope that one of these paid to lose TBA's doesn't read the script and drops and stops someone. I hate it when you see stuff like this, days before an event and no opponent announced, it's a ridiculous way to run things and unfair on the TBA's who are just lambs to the slaughter in many cases, padding out records in the process.

    In a weird way chinning their opponent is the worst thing that could happen... these lads get paid week to week and they’d stop getting used.

    Very true. I suppose the best TBA of recent times was the Spanish bloke who Campbell Hatton got absolutely schooled by. Campbell got the gift but the boxing World seemed to stand up and take note of this, helped, unwittingly, by Ricky chiming in to try and defend Campbell whch only made it worse. I've never seen a boxer completely outclass someone like that, clown with their opponent and then lose, it was sickening.
