    To be honest when I saw him I thought he was going to gas the place as thats what used to happen when I went to Carnival

    I will try and check out Sky Sports to see if they still have footage

    I think I was close to chinny and a few others. I was wearing a PAc-Man T shirt that had blood coming from the head with a question Who Pacs The Pacman?

    I had to explain to his bodyguards that I wasnt trying to insult Floyd by giving it to him to sign. They wouldnt sign it as they didnt actually get hat the t-hirt was asking ( Flloyd looked at it bemused). He evntually signed it though

    How you doing little man? :patschFriday was a total madness i turned up at half two to see a flood of fans outside the Peacock gym. I had been warned by Danny Williams new trainer Tunde Ajayi who trains at the gym,That people were coming in from 8am lol.I get out my mates Billz Range Rover only to see 3 times world champion Duke Mckenize and a BBB of C inspector standing in the crowd. 'You aint giving in Spence' Duke says to me. My reply was 'WATCH and see' i call Tunde to come and open up the back gate,We somehow get pass the sea of screaming fan.Then Duke the Board of Control guy get in the ram jammed club.Duke asked me how do i do it, LOL. I keep on telling Duke to stop playing down his acheivements as he is a very humble guy but he should have an MBE at very least for what he has done in the sport.Now inside i get a call from someone close to Jermain Defoe asking me if i could get him in.Bearing in mind this is Defoe we are talking about, my phone battery is dying due to the amount of people ring and asking me to get them in.So i ask Colin Macmillan to stand at the gate so they can reopen it on my return as Defoe was just parking up.Now i'm outside this little England striker gets rushed by fans asking for autographs, the nice guy that he is and plays to the crowd.I'm holding his hand like he's my daugther trying to get past the crowd.We get to the gate and that little TOSSA Macmillian aint there no more.So we are stuck, lucky for me I see Otuo Sabb 'The Wonder Kid' who was inside doing padwork with Tunde for the people waiting for Floyd and he gets a guard to open the gate.Floyd does his workout the crowd go nuts,Defoe gets hooked up with Floyds beautiful assistant,I get sore bloody feet from all the running up and down i did. What a crazy friday, Peace2Fingers Spencer x.:|

    What the **** has Defoe got to do with boxing ? I travelled down from Manchester and stood in the blaizing heat for over 3 hrs before finally being told that we couldn't get in. I couldn't wait any longer as I had to go to Milton Keynes and work as i'd swapped all my shifts around to go to Peacocks. Pisses me off stuff like this :twisted:

    Everyone there 'loved' him and Spence I can bet my bottom $ that I have followed his career for longer and with more enthusiasm that Defoe has. And whther he likes boxing or not it still pisses me off that he gets preferential treatment when us mugs have to wait outside and be treated like peices of **** by no-mark security guards.

    Duke's a great guy and as you said Spencer very humble guy. As much as i was pissed not getting in i met a great fighter like Duke and met two current fighters and got pics with them so it weren't all bad for me but i feel for lads like Dan and co who came all that way for nothing. A father and son came from Brighton to see him and left without seeing him. Real Shame

    As i said earlier in this thread lessons have to be learned and hopefully next time Floyd or someone on that level comes to London to train they do it at the o2 or excel or somewhere that can accommodate a large number of fans.
