    I did one almost exactly a year ago in Hoddesdon. The stories were a little rehearsed but it was a good craic. It was a treat for the old man as he was a huge fan (I was nearly called Frank as a result) & they read out a question my Dad submitted about Gary Mason which was good. For us the night was decent value, but msg me if you want to know more

    Met him a few years ago at a similar event.

    The question I asked was - how do you feel standing in the ring watching a menacing Iron Mike Tyson walking towards the ring?

    Very good evening and he is very honest about his career and life struggles.

    His reponse was ' it may be hard to believe knowing what was coming but I had no fear at all and focussed on the first bell'.

    Went to one with Mayweather 4 years ago. Q&A was starting at 6 o’clock but paid extra to go in at 3 o’clock and have a photo and meal.

    He turned up just before 6 and to top it off it was hosted by Kugan.

    Can’t remember now mate but if it was a freebie I’d have felt ripped off. Was proper crap. Had some horrendous yellow tracksuit on, was asked the worst questions ever from Kugan then fcked off.
