    He's a real weirdo. Always making long posts fishing for sympathy.

    But hey, he's on a 4 fight win streak so clearly he's now dedicated to the sport and pushing for a title shot.....

    Basically said he beat Luis Ortiz in their fight and that he only had 2 weeks noticed and was robbed of a win. Some bull**** like that.

    It's an absolute essay like most of his posts, can't copy and paste it from the IG app. Talks about that he got a 10-10 round against Luis Ortiz plus the usual "took the fight on two weeks notice no training" stuff. Honestly don't think he's a bad guy but his social media posts are absolute drivel

    I really like Allen as he spends time locally for free helping people, and I like his young fighter Hayden, but there's no way he beat Ortiz ever! That is a laughable assertion.

    From Instagram:
    Most of the comments on the post are about Ortiz being "world number 1" rather than Allen's claim...

    Ortiz is the number one 70 yr old fighter in the world. I did chuckle at Allen's comment that Ortiz smelled old like his nan when they fought

    His Ortiz comments were clearly tongue in cheek

    He is an absolute bellend but underneath I think a nice guy and no malice or anything intended, rather far more of him in the world that actually horrific people like BJS

    The problem with people like Dave Allen is that they're always publicly patting themselves on the back, always making excuses and trying to make out they're some sort of humble hero. If Dave does some good stuff for people, nice one, well done, just don't tell people, nobody needs to know. It's like these c**ts that give to charity but make it all about them, I hate people like that.

    I hear you. It's like those birds you see on Tinder with pictures doing 'chairty' work in Africa. All I see is a smug look on your face while you pat some confused African young lad on the head.
