Can't wait til someone knocks the filler out of Shannon Courtenay's absurd looking lips. Why on earth are trashy, ex stripper bimbos like her and that cnting Instagram flexing prik Con Bent, being given front and centre stage for Matchroom. I'm sorry but these towie mongs are what's wrong with boxing.
The Matchroom stable is full of gimmicks these days. Bosh Fisher, Ebanie Bridges and Campbell Hatton are as good as you’ll get outside of PPV. Bleak times ahead for the best promotional company in the world.
Arguably still the best promotional outfit out there. Sure, Eddie Hearn is a cockney wanker but he's a terrific promoter with him going global and all. I'm glad Warren puts more emphasis on British fighters. But yeah, I don't care how big of a wanker you are as long as you put on good shows. Something that's been lacking for quite some time now. I don’t know..Maybe I should attend more small hall events. Because I absolutely love going the boxing, it's not that easy living in Holland with a missus and kids though.
Bloody hell I can’t even think of any Dutch boxers. There was the fella who stepped in to face Callum Smith in the WBSS semis (Holkzen?) and then Spong who was meant to face Usyk in his debut… I’m stumped after that. Which part of Holland if you don’t mind me asking?
I wonder what the damage of those bills is! Must be substantial by now, I dread to think how much a full legal team costs
And coincides with a sudden change of physique and form.......such bad luck, what are the chances of that!
Dubois fought a Dutch a bloke a few years back. Can't recall his name. But aye, boxing ain't big here. The Dutch are into kickboxing which is a bit shite to be honest. I go to a gym here, not at the moment since I'm all over the shop but nah they're bang average. Can't fault them really it's just not for them. I live in Utrecht. Edit: Regilio Tuur a former world super featherweight champ. No one hardly knows the bloke.
Tuur retired on his own terms and was a good puncher. There was talk of Naz stepping up to box him as he had the WBO at 130lbs. Naz would have splattered him.
Alleged he has spent 400k on the defence so far. He still posts on IG his latest cars and kettles though, so I don't think he is on the breadline.
It just shows how overpaid so many fighters are. All of this ‘it has to be on PPV for the fight to make financial sense’ bollocks. Only elite fighters should be earning millions per fight.
I would say those that generate enough money to be paid millions per fight should be earning those amounts. I agree it's crazy that what fighters can earn without actually reaching the top but nobody is forcing the fans to buy tickets and the PPV.
Aye mate it's like when Michael Jackson used to have kids stop at his house and then paid $23 million in settlement fees. A guilty man would never!
