    Most people on here didn't want it. The camps were split into those who saw it as normal, if disappointing part of boxing and those who didn't and started burning effigies of David Haye.

  7. I care and I'm a ******.

    Other than execution, what's the cure?

    Can't help the latter I'm afraid, I've been surrounded by Leeds fans for 26 years.

    You'd be arrested quicker than you could say Paul Weller.

    His boss will not stand for it.

    My worry for you Rob is that this is going to be the David Haye thing all over again with Eddie Hearn. You pin you hopes on a person and then get very upset when they turn out to be just like everyone else in the sport.

    Rob is at the front of the very long queue to suck off 'Nice Guy' Eddie.

    We have 5 promotors in the UK: Frank W, Maloney, Hennessey, Hearn and Hatton. All wanting TV dates. 3 of them are confined to one channel. And very few of them will work with each. In the last twelve months Hatton has worked with Maloney and Hatton has worked with Hearn. Other than that what other cross promotional fights have took place between these 5?

    The biggest problem is they will not work with each other.

    I am bored already with Hearn. He has Froch and Brook and that is it. Barker is semi retired. McClosky bore everyone and Frampton needs to step up.

    Prizefighter bores me and my main gripe with Hearn is we have very little evidence that he will develop talent.
