I've heard something similar, probably from the same source. I don't think Dave is turning up just for his pay cheque (he definitely wants another 1 or 2 ) but I heard his camp hasn't gone completely smoothly, illness etc but then they rarely do. I want Dave to win , he's definitely one of the more likeable people in boxing but I think he loses again, Fisher gets found out when stepped up to any half decent level too imo.
Fisher-245.5 Allen-265 (career high, last fight 257.7). What do you think? Apparently, rumors about Allen's poor form and preparation are true.
Fischer also gained a little weight and this is the maximum weight of his career. But we are talking about 4.5 pounds, which will come in handy in the clinch.
Like I said, expect a fat ish but fit Dave Allen. People going on one about his weight but he looks fitter here than in first fight weigh in. People quick to point fingers at his gut but don't want to notice his skinny looking face and jaw. If he was an unfit 265lbs he'd look fat as **** in face.

When I commented that Allen is not capable of turning up for two fights in a row fit. Someone responded that Jamie Moore would not allow him to come into the fight if he was not fit. 265 is the heaviest he has been since 2018 and the David Howe fight. Out of 32 fights its the joint 3rd heaviest he has ever been. I think its safe to say right now that Dave won't be in tip top shape.
Disappointing by Allen coming in that fat. He just wants a payday. Couldn’t even cut down on the burgers for what could be the last big fight of his career.
They keep referring to Dave Allen as a guy who doesn't like being in under the spotlight and who doesn't like talking about himself. Unfathomable to me. I see a guy who does nothing but talk about himself and tells the same old stories about his career in nearly every interview. Dave Allen would eat himself if he could and not just because he's a fat slob.
Keeps referring to himself as a professional athlete. I'd honestly class Luke Littler as more of a professional athlete than Dave Allen.
What a load of horse shite. You are not confirming anything, just chucking in your two pence. He's a fat, lazy ****. A virus back in february leading him to being a fat **** in the middle of May? Also, people typically lose mass if they're suffering from a virus. He had the same old lurgy that every Tom, Dick, and Harry had.
Dave Allen is the epitome of the 60 year old bloke in the pub who tells everyone they had trials at West ham
