    I’m not young, I just never got round to driving before. And my girlfriend and I both have good jobs so no issue on that all. It’s the 21st Century, she’s capable of providing for herself.

    Also, number 2 is up, go back a page.

    Pretty sure you said a few times you didn’t think he’d make it?

    You didn’t, more me making the point you should’ve been a little patient before dismissing those you ‘thought’ weren’t going to make the top 10

    I’ll be reading this tomorrow for sure. That looks a well researched and informative piece as usual.

    Can't wait for the 20,000 word write up on Luis Nery...:D

    Joking aside, these features have been wonderful.

    Very glad you’ve enjoyed them mate (means a lot coming from you) but—and I hope this won’t disappoint you—the number one ranked bantamweight gets a shorter write-up than McGovern. Less to explain to the layman I guess! Pete Herman piece was also very long as certain things require explanation to the ‘modern’ boxing fan

    Been told that MONDAY is when the no.1 bantamweight will be revealed.

    Thanks again to everyone who stuck with it the last few months, and to those who waited patiently for these last 2 to be published. It’s really appreciated.
