    Albeit when the forum went under its former name.
    David Haye actually gave a shout out, back in 2003 or '04, after one of his fights on BBC.
    Tony Bellew was here just a few years ago.

    I know Frankie Gavin, Tony Bellew, Anthony Farnell, Curtis Woodhouse used to post on here.

    Billy nelson still does. Steve Wood posts on here but he name hides ;) I know who he is though it's easy to spot as he's always talking about his V.I.P fighters.

    O'Neil Bell and Shannon Briggs used to post on ESB. Buncey was active in the Brit forum. Most of the them got hounded off the boards by the trolls.

    A shame such trolling exists when there are so many respectful, appreciative fans that appreciate the presence and insight into the sport of such posters, even if not always agreeing with their contributions.

    They can deny or indulge. They're boxers or trainers, these guys are not suspectible to be hurt by forum material - in the case they are, the team should in place beforehand to prevent any probs.

    From past experience they were all constructive and honest, aside from Gavin, who seemed dumber than a rock.

    I know one or two that still have a look round, but its not worth the effort for them to contribute because of the trolling. Shame, but I still have the odd private chat with one of them.
