    Judging by his twitter, looks like smigga has severed ties with his long time promoter.
    No word of a lie, I bought 7 ****ing tickets for the bill at the echo. The bill is just falling apart!
    Fast car is making some real moves!

    No real shock after the Stephen Smith bollocks.

    Agree, but he was only tweeting in he last day or so that he was looking forward to fighting on the 7th!

    Whats his Twitter handle? Not sure if I follow him or not. Interesting to see if the December 7th bill goes ahead if he has left.

    Of all the fighters that have left ****** in recent times, have to say this is the one I'm most shocked about. Seemed to be very friendly and loyal to ******, and of course had the gig on boxnation as well co-commentating on some big fights.

    I guess as soon as the legal stuff happened with Stephen, then it was inevitable. Beefy to follow soon I would guess...

    Bought tickets for his shows in the past but never again the farce of his wembley show with Burns Vasquez being the final straw.

    It wasn't the fact it seems that fight was never made anyway a friend of mine had someone he knows well on the undercard & i couldn't make the revised date.No refund policy but i had bought my ticket from my friend via the fighter.

    Just gave my ticket away in the end if you think how frustrated we get as fans think how the fighters feel.Selling tickets,chasing money & the show gets cancelled.Sad as i like to support local fighters & especially people i know either directly or through someone.

    Can't blame him and can't say I'm surprised. No matter how close him and Frank are it won't be anywhere near how he feels about his brothers.

    I suppose when you consider everything, that it's not too surprising. It's just frustrating as a paying fan. But it's a short career and as a fighter I suppose You've got to do what seems like the best thing is for your career.
    It wouldbe interesting to know what has happened behind the scenes. Paul did seem to have a good gig on boxnation, but has been appearing on sky quite a lot recently. Additionally he did not appear at the recent press conference for the bill. One of the most interesting things that has went on though was with his recent fight with Dodson. He said he was glad to be back on sky etc. then anyone who saw the ifltv interview in the changing room afterwards will have noticed Francis wazza in the background saying that Paul's next fight would be on boxnation. Seems to me the power struggles were going on even back then.

    He's such limited talent, is going nowhere, and yet, has always had these tickets on himself.
