    Barring novelty acts, who has Eddie actually promoted from obscurity to the top?

    Look at the model of his business and his history. It's not what he does. Eddie is a microwave (quick), BT is like a cooker (slow). Eddie takes a star and gives them a big platform. BT will take you from the York Hall to the WBO and it will take years. Two different animals. It's like comparing a sprinter to a marathon runner.

    20man was a top poster. Talked sense about boxing and brought some good humour too.

    All well & good when he was on Sky. But what does he do in 2025?

    This is one area where I will give him the benefit of the doubt, simply because we'd all be giving Skye the casting couch treatment, plus forget Opetaia she was the standout of tha DAZN show.

    Parson's didn’t' and doesn't stand a chance.

    Promote the king of crusierweight? A commercial animal in AJ? Probably work with Canelo again. Could be worse mate.

    Two examples you will not like.

    1. Shannon Courtenay from working in a local bar to World Champion.
    2. Terence Harper from working in 'The Chippy' to World Champion.

    Fair to say then if @McGrain unbanned him, he would go some way back into winning the respect of core posters of the board ?

    Then it would be up to him if he wanted to engage.

    I don’t give a **** about who respects me and who doesn’t.

    are you still after a permaban or not really?
