    I don't think it was aligning himself to the hobos that was alex's primary problem.

    I'm not sure he will be doing his fighters many favours if he gets his license. From what I've heard, he's tight as a ducks arse.

    I'd love to see boxing in Edinburgh but sadly I just can't see it being a success. There just wouldn't be a big enough target market I don't think - Edinburgh's just too much of a rugby type city if that makes sense.
