    I was watching youtube video called; "GENNADY GOLOVKIN WANTED A LOGO ON THE RING MATT & 2O RINGSIDE TICKETS TO FIGHT DARREN BARKER" and I could help myself thinking Eddie might be the funniest and coolest dudes in the promoting business. He makes jokes about himself, he seems honest person, he always finds the best of everyone and his former fighters still appreciate him. So refreshing to see something like that in boxing.

    A top crook. A master of his trade.

    Things look real good for him too with the Brits doing so well, so long may he continue putting on great shows and fights.

    He's a ****. An Es*** toff who needs his daddy to fund him and hold his hand.

    He just appears friendly because he has the biggest tv network deal in the UK and gets loads of camera time. He backed Fraudley against Haye. He has done great shows within the domestic lightweight division the rest of it seems to be a turd.

    Jealousy is a cruel mistress.

    But yeah you're right, he should have told his dad to shove his money and become a solicitor or some other boring ****.

    No jelousy. Just the frustration of a boxing fan at boxing promoter's usual bs and inability to work with other promoters to put on fan friendly and publicly demanded fights

    Yep, he has worked wonders for British boxing and has caused a great deal of butthurt

    Seems a decent guy with a good sense of humour-but make no mistake about it-the old man(Barry) is the general in this outfit.:deal

    Isn't Barry busy with darts and snooker...

    Pretty sure Eddie can stand alone.
