    Written by the great Donald McCrae, so no surprise. I’ve reread Dark Trade countless times. Great boxing man.

    Yep any fool can see it. You don't just play hide and seek with the people that will decide your fate. It mind-boggling how people are saying, "Well he hasn't been found guilty yet so why shouldn't he fight? The board are not being fair with him"

    He's facking ran away from the board for about 7 months. Of course that's going to get the board's back up. Combine that with the threat of legal action, why wouldn't the board behave the way they are behaving now.

    You could understand Fury and AJ or prime Naz and Lennox strong arming the board. But this is Connor fackin Benn lol.

    Hopefully they crack down on the runt.

    Eddie's misjudged all this. It might be his 2nd greatest blunder after the dazn move.

    This is now way beyond ridiculous. There's a way to show these 2 **** splats they do not "run" boxing. Do not pay to watch him fight & cancel dazn subscriptions. I challenge anyone to say if he never boxed again without being cleared properly he'd be missed. Every dazn subscription enforces hearns belief he can do what he likes & if held to the same rules as everyone else he'll just take his ball elsewhere to play...let him, just don't watch.Never in any sport have I seen a more odious group than Hearn, bellew, the tea boy and the cheat.

    Eddie and Conor have clearly sat down over a Mexican steak dinner and told Conor he’s got to play the villain going forward haven't they - it’s embarrassing

    I think at this stage we just have to hope the person he fights beats the **** out of him. I see no backward step from Hearn, the BBBofC ain't gonna do nothing either. Hoping that DAZN big brass shut this down but then they only care about the money so would they?

    That article by McRae is damning. Shows what happens when actual journalists decline to stay on the gravy train.

    The guy is an absolute *****, fails 2 drugs tests then goes around all pissed off with bodyguards and won’t give anybody an interview. He’s a proper welt
