    Good main event, CS got the job done decent watch, good atmosphere, McCracken a good fit in that he will improve his cardio and doesn't get too excited between rounds, basic instructions.

    Kraus without a doubt carries good power, however far he goes be a great TV fighter.

    James Dean Fury,, flashy type style but looks like he's feather fisted.

    Speaking of the Regency, looks like Ireland is about to get a recognised old face back on its shores in the next 24-48 hours.

    Unlikely he’ll be seeing much of Temple Bar though.

    Strange living here I'm semi rural and here they look at places like Dublin as a different world in some aspects.

    Flaunting of wealth publicly here in being a face of boxing really shone the spotlight on him further, he would of been better served gleaning as least extra noise around him as possible, just kept his name in the news and lots of documentaries and debate.

    Hence extra pressure on authorities to pursue him and any people connected to him.

    Be interesting to see what they do with Kraus next.

    Apparently very popular at home in Holland.

    Why not put a card on there, be interesting see what sort of numbers he could draw at the gate.

    Yeah, pretty much how I see it mate.

    Again, just like fighters who fight too long and can’t let it go, he’s another version of that. He brought all the spotlight on himself when there was no need.

    Gotti did the same with the Mafia back in the day. I guess it’s that sociopathic ego, and who is going to tell them no when “no” might come with consequences.

    His life is over now really. The Krays were the same, and they were 10 years younger when they got sent down.

    Those types can’t handle the quiet life. Always needing some outer fix to remedy the inner void.

    I thought Simpson's holding was disgraceful. Apparently Williamson had a hair transplant last year. It couldn't have been a very good one because his thinning barnet was distracting.

    Simpson's nice guy act slipped after the last defeat. It won't be long until he gets sparked again.
