    yea good call Mark, time to move on.

    On his facebook at Christmas he said he wasn't ever going to fight again, but has since moved to Oliver Harrison's gym

    Well thats a good sign got some good fighters at that gym atm with Derry Murray and Fielding there. It must be tough when you dont know when your fighting next or when your getting paid etc etc.

    Im not sure but if you say its so it probably is. Its full of Liverpool fighters at the moment and they all know each other and crack on together. The one thing that I can never get my head round is how there is no big established Liverpool pro trainer.

    There are a few with their own trainers Bellew and Price etc but mad that for the size and quality of boxing in the city there isnt a Joe Gallagher,Oliver Harrison equivalent.
