    Rumour mill flying about that he will sign for Hearns after being pissed with Frank abut Murray getting Rios. But its only a rumour at this stage. Any idea when we will hear some news Jig?

    I thought that but Brook only had a 56 day curfew which started in July and the Jennings fight was in September.

    I'd be surprised if they can't get 1 night off though.

    Frank on Mitchell 'he's got to stop acting like a victim, act like a man, behave like a man. behave like a professional boxer then you might get some respect, My staff and i have invested a lot of time and money in a very difficult economy into someone who has no respect for anybody or himself'

    'I worked closely with him, i put time into him but it's just strictly business because that's the only way to treat Kevin' In this interview he also reminds Matchroom Mitchell is under contract..

    That coming of a great performance against Murrey, who many expected Kevin to lose. His problems were all before that fight so it seems strange why they are bringing this up now.if u don't like him the why not part company?

    Lol I completely get where you are coming from, but as ex-law enforcement myself, I am afraid that they are crazy strict with curfews etc. where there is violent crime involved, and increasingly so. I know that he didn't do anything violent, but as he was found with a knife then that is how it will be written up internally. So I can well believe that they might not let him out after dark for six months, even if that leads to loss of livlihood - I have seen that same thing happen before, people lose their jobs following a curfew, then end up returning to crime once they have lost their job...

    Anyway, not meaning to get socio-political on you, but thought I would chime in as I have relevant experience: it would not surprise me in the least if they hold him to the letter of the curfew, including not letting him fight, given that they will class his as a violent crime. There are exceptions, but not many. With the previous drug issues it is unlikely that a judge will look kindly on any application for a suspension of the curfew, even for one night only. Quite apart from that, any such application would cost money, and it does not sound as though his promoter would be minded to pay.
