I was right next to the elevator that too you up to the 4th floor mate. I shouted "BUNCEY" nothing bad!! You had just appeared and spoke to Ed Robinson
That's where I was. In front of the guys that blagged that bench to stand on. Coudln't see a ****ing thing tho, photographers kept moving about in front.
aye mate, then this drunken **** from Leeds appeared mouthing off telling us to tell the photographers to move! saying that I got a good look of Wlad when he was on the scales, the guy was massive, right there and then it cemented my thought that Haye had to do it early.
ah you were at the other side of the floor. I was in early doors and got to meet all sorts. Spoke with Ed Robinson and George Groves for a bit and had a very interesting conversation with Pete Maschircano (spl). Johnny Nelson came over, Jim Watt, Dave Coldwell, Ashley Sexton and Ryan Ashton as well. Top atmosphere that sent the fans away buzzing afterwards :good
yea was on other side where all the guests walked past, wanted a picture with jim watt but he didnt come over:-(
saw Mr bunces question about what is the best fight on the card, & even I would have to admit I think its Murray-Mitchell, but I have read a lot of stuff here saying Mitchell is done & has no chance due to outside of ring activities as it were, I was planning to have a wee bet on Mitchell pulling off the upset, BUT are these Mitchell rumours just internet gossip? Or is there truth in them? Just an honest question for my brit forum comrades:good
the Hayemaker camp were brilliant, just shouted to one of their security guys and he said "give us 20 minutes to get the tv interviews out of the way" and bang on q they were over beside us.
The weigh-in was brilliant for all the wrong reasons! Mad, tiny venue meant that it was crazy atmosphere. As I ran up I saw how many had failed to get in and that was a pity. It could have been out at the stadium in one end of the ground and I think that 4,000-6,000 would have been there. Keep the suggestions for Fight of the Night coming in, thanks. Adios.
I agree that it should have been at the stadium, then again the fans wouldn't have got to meet the people I mentioned above. the place was a bloody fire hazard, no way would that have been allowed in the UK. the reason it was held there was because the sports shop sponsor K2.
I will ask Ronbo about Rock and Tiger. I will reach out to Audley for next week's show - he can talk Del Boy and Fury. Adios and thanks.
