    I'd say if your ringside theres a better chance mate, if not like most of us it will be pretty hard at a big venue like Nottingham Arena - reckon if you could get to the weigh in it would be a better chance.

    I remember at the Pascal fight though seeing Tyson Fury (he'd made his debut then) standing at the bar with some of his family, remember thinking, this kid is huge!

    Hang around when the event finishes if you can (probably about 4am so unlikely)! The security is usually busy ushering people out so you can slide in at ringside and usually meet commentary teams and any boxers at ringside.

    Unlikely to meet Froch or Dirrell unless you go the weigh in, but likelyhood is that the other boxers from the bill and anyone in attendence will be at ringside.

    I've met a fair few doing this.
