    Over on the scene, Macklin saying he wouldn't like to fight Andy Lee but if there was a world title on the line he'd go for it.

    Who the hell is this Apollo guy? He turned up at the Tyson Fury press conference in some sort of fancy dress costume and started touting Audley Harrison as a possible opponent for Fury.

    THE SAGA OF IKE WEIR, “THE BELFAST SPIDER”

    By Douglas Cavanaugh



    He was the greatest featherweight of his day. He went up and down the line and beat them all, irrespective of race or color. He could hit like a pile driver and was as clever as (Joe) Gans at blocking blows.

    I've known him for a while. Hard to miss him at pressers over here.

    It's easy to look down your nose at him and view him as a figure of derision but he actually asks some good questions but lets himself down the odd time as well.

    Definately not the full shilling though.
