    Nice post ProPunter. I decided to skip the next 2 PPV cards or watch them on youtube after and donate the €40 to the Nick fund instead. It might only be a small amount but if enough of us do it, its gonna make the next 12 months a lot easier for the warrior. Go guys!

    Has Hearn said anything yet as regards to Blackwell? Seemed quite quiet in the initial aftermath.

    Cleverly is raffling off a pair of his shorts for Nick too via Twitter.

    Not sure if its true but David Haye said he would give 10% of his next purse.

    He's gone up in my estimations

    10% from his ticket sales

    Read that equals 50k which is very good of Haye. I think the boxing community will do a special dinner for Nick Blackwell so that will bring in some cash.

    Think they did one for Lee Purdy when he retired with his eye.

    Just donated £20. I hope everyone on here can give something to show their appreciation for Nick. Hopefully the fund will help him back on his feet while he recovers and finds his new way in life.
    Anyone who has called a boxer a coward on here should take a moment to think and then donate. Respect anyone who gets in that ring.
