    Boxed with the lad as a kid, Good luck to him.

    Shifts tickets but from what i heard he was struggling with Tony Owen until the stoppage and admitted it himself.

    Seems to me Hearn's going to follow the Maloney blueprint. Ticket sellers >>>>>>>>>>>>.

    more to do with he amount of ticket's he sells rather than his talent....you have talented guys not getting the breaks and just walking away from the sport and your getting very average fighters getting exposure what a ****ed up sport it is

    It's a business first and a sport second. If you don't put bums on seats then you're not good business. Simple as that sadly.

    Totally agree. Sadly as Celtic Warrior said it's a business.

    He's a prettyboy and brings a following. Eddie will hope he does half decent cos he can push him on Sky.
