    I hope this doesn't lead to a ban on boxing at York Hall...

    Uncle told me the story today. Sounds like after the lad won his fight he waved to a well known guy who is his family when the other family saw who he was waving to they pulled out the tools and went at it. On going feud between the families.

    Can't stand these loud mouthed travelers nowadays all wanting to be the next big man..****s ruining the sport.

    Not all travellers are like this we must remember, also a lot of very good boxers (a lot who are decent guys too) come from a travelling background.

    That said the behaviour at York Hall is well out of order, these traveller family feuds can get real nasty!

    I agree. Maybe 2% are ok and just steal for a living.

    They probably do. They are just using one term to describe the Irish travelling families who 99% of the time cause trouble wherever they are, think they have a god given right to other peoples property and **** up green belt land whilst their kids use local services that they don't contribute a penny towards in tax of any sort.

    Even in ****ing Chiswick in a bar we worked in, you would get 8 and 9 year old traveller girls coming in on Halloween asking for money with their Mum sat outside waiting for them. When we tried to get them to leave as it was 21's and above, these ****ing kids would say "Touch me an' I'll cry ****".:roll::lol:

    I have never liked to generalise about a group of people, but I've never met a single Irish traveller or heard about one from anyone I know who isn't a pain in the arse.
