    Cheers Slap

    Matthew came across very well there indeed.

    The Khan fight is a natural one should Amir beat Peterson and move up. Still can't see it happening for another year or so tho

    Yeah i think he'd of shifted a few.

    I think Kell's been managed the right way in last year. He's building a nice fanbase. Even people i know have asked about him and they ain't boxing fans..

    I don't think Hearn comes across well. It is possible to champion your fighter and be gracious at the same time. Furthermore he should be looking to land Kell a world title, not chasing a man who is yet to fight at welterweight.

    The more I see and hear from Hearn the more I like him. The guy is excellent.

    Bet he made a LOT of money with that one, and I know it was a massive IF, but it was worth a gamble as a promoter, that after all Harrisons talk of destiny, that he was going to really go for it.
    He didnt, everyone involved got left with egg on their face, but cash in their pockets.

    actually as far as I can remember Eddie used to caveat everything said with regards Audley.

    it's always went along the lines of "we know Audley is in the last chance saloon and it could be a stinker but he pulled it out of the bag against Sprott and all he needs to do is land that big left once and it could be over"

    I tend to look at someones career on the whole and not just one incident but even in this Eddie hedged his bets. He's good for boxing!
