    So do you have proof that Peters is lying about offering Proska the fight? I'm not saying he's a saint but unless you can give me more than "he is a professional boxing promoter..." I think I will take his word on it.

    Peters has been instrumental in reviving Irish boxing and I hope he continues to go from strength to strength, but apparently he can be a fly man ;)

    :lol: Maybe so but I just can't see what he has to gain from lying about offering Proska a fight with Lee.

    Its not like Proska is a big name in boxing circles! So putting his name out there isnt exactly going to give Lee the moniker of most avoided fighter....

    i would imagine the offer for the fight wasnt enough for proska's people to take the risk

    Thiam's purse was 10,000 for his fight with Lee.
