    Apologies if this has been brought up before (I couldn't find it on any searches), but am I the only one to notice that John Coyle has decided to flush his refereeing career down the toilet by becoming the new stripy-vested ref for the ubercamp gladiators?

    What on earth was he thinking??

    My guess is that it pays better.

    No doubt, but it still seems a bit like career suicide to me. Gladiators is unlikely to have a great shelf life, and surely it won't do his long-term boxing career any favours.

    Is John Coyle not past BBBoC retirement age, just like Mickey Vann did his last fight just before Christmas?

    Don't you think that Mickey would make a great Gladiators referee :rofl
