    Yeah mate, tottally agree with everything you said. I think if Travis just sort of needs to follow the path that people like Eubank jr are on, he needs to be in the ring as often as he can, get the best possible sparring partners and have at least 6-7 fights next year against solid journeymen, he's still young and he can put that loss well behind him. I think any show with Saunders, The Dickinson brothers, Martin Ward etc. would get a decent crowd and get people talking. The type of people head lining the O2 shows should be on the undercard of those fighters and nothing more, I mean £35-50 to go and see 4 4 round bouts is a joke lol.

    and I should be back in action in Febuary in the North Shields home show mate.

    do you remember the days of mcrory and john westgarth? I have a mate who is westgarth's nephew, only heard good things about him, if you look at his record he fought the best.

    10x p4p a better boxer. Bit harsh. I'd have said maybe 5x... just remind me how your own career is progressing because last time we spoke I believe you had being spanked by a 47 year old making their non-kicking debut.

    Indeed I think I offered you a bit of advice and support- yet you choose to insult me?

    I was pointing out that you were being a hypocrite and then you further insult another boxer?

    What a joker.

    right fair play, sorry jeff. you do have sly little digs at me sometimes but I respect you as a boxer, you have done very well in your career.

    you did come here looking to wind me up if your honest jeff, but your a very good boxer in all fairness. not many who step in a gym achieve as much as you do that's why you should understand the point I'm making and it's not exactly like I gave you the biggest insult in the world I was just making a point but maybe it was a bit over stated.

    Mark Greener was 43 at the time I think and yeah mate thanks for the advice.

    When do I have sly digs? I tried to help you out because you were having the **** taken out of you. It's only forum banter but regardless the Andre ward post demonstrated that you weren't taking your own advice on board.

    what's Rob Ismay like? never seen him fight before, just seen his stats on boxrec. Any potential? I see Glenn Foot is in the next prizefighter in January - that should give him some decent exposure and a platform to push on.

    Also, what are the crowd numbers like at these Wraith events? £35 seems absurd when people of sheffield can pay a little more and see brook, nottingham not too much more to see froch etc, slight difference to the likes of Akash Hussein and David Ferguson (the last 2 headliners)

    I think that's a little unfair on Jon Lewis who has already beaten several of the better domestic cruisers around. Although that ain't saying much ...
