    Hang on a minute!

    We both know that we both wanted it on our own shows, you said you had your venue booked and needed tommy on or there would be no show.
    So we agreed for it to go to purse bids.
    Your 'offer' was then and then only and the purse bid would have brought in more money for the fighters - fact.

    I was informed next up that Tommy had announced on the pitch at a football match that he would be fighting Johanson for an eliminator for the british instead, backed up by him putting it on facebook.
    Fair enough, i understood that a bigger fight and have never said he was ducking Kieran as i would have done the same.

    I then proceeded - with the BBBofC's knowledge to try to make an English title fight for Kieran with someone else - Two boxer's, one unbeaten, who had already been scheduled for home promotions to fair enough, and one 'prospect' who didn't want the fight.

    So with you fighting for a Brit Eliminator, and us not having a meaningful English title fight, i got Kieran in PF.

    So, you came away from the English, we lined something else and then you stepped back into the English title after.

    I don't see where anyone is ducking out of anything.

    Rob Smith informed me that the board would not pass Coyle v Johanson, and asked would i mind Coyle fighting for the English instead as long as it went out to bids for him to defend against Kieran next.

    I think thats fair enough as we're tied up with PF and it keeps the English title active.

    I did actually think it was Coyle v Johanson for the English not this other fight that you've made.

    Now that is FACT.
