    I thought the Boxing Hour was excellent tonight. Good in depth discussion on Chisora-Haye. Plus the guests were excellent.

    Mark Prince is a breath of fresh air, I have seen some videos of his work in the community, he is doing a lot of great work. And, the most touching thing of the whole Boxing Hour tonight was hearing two old pros like McMillian and Prince talking from the heart about the honor, code and discipline of boxing and the pride that they take in showing a good example to kids. All that **** between Haye and Chisora unfairly taints the vast majority of boxers who would never behave like that outside of the ring.

    I was reading that Mark Prince fight with Michael Hale was one of the fights of the year in Boxing News for 1997. The write up on that fight sounded like a great comeback win with plenty of knockdowns, I must dig it out on youtube.

    Dan, use your sense here, dude. You think Chisora wrote that?

    It's a pure Frank letter, the same one we've seen whenever an FW fighter gets in **** because they need it for the BBoBC hearing.

    I prefer people not saying sorry because no one really means it. For example, "Sorry I fingered your mate while you were asleep in the other room then let her suck me off" translates as, "Bugger, you caught me!"

    Haye's statement was at least logical and I don't see why he would apologise - he wasn't giving it the hard man routine, he was defending himself from a grade-A ****.

    Also, legally it's just ****ing stupid to say "sorry" because it admits culpability.

    He would have agreed to it being said, whether he wrote it or not.

    "Del, listen mate, we need to put out a statement about your ****-wittery at the weekend."

    "Yeah, whatever, I'm gonna strut around like a ponce while pretending I'm hard, right?"

    "Cool, just go with what works, yeah?"

    Anyone else notice how Hart pronounced Bellew? Think he's getting confused with the jungle book.
