Re: Tyson Fury Pays £1.5 Million To Settle Lawsuit With Mick Hennessy

Disgraceful of Mick to pilfer than money out of the hands of the homeless. That money was just resting in Tyson's account before he was going to withdraw it and buy all the Big Issues.

Anyone know anything about Tyson Fury's older brother?

Heard him mentioned in a few interviews, John-boy Fury, and was wondering if anyone knew anything about him? Seems a bit conspicuous by his absence seeing as none of the Fury's seem too shy around a camera.

No reason for wanting to know other than curiosity I suppose.

Re: How does Ronald McIntosh keep getting work?

I don’t mind it occasionally to mix things up a bit, but Ron definitely overuses it. I even looked it up as it wasn't a word I familiar with even though it was obvious he used instead of round and everything I looked up said it was part of a poem ... Ron is the Séamus Heaney of boxing In the sense ...

Re: Reece Bellotti - Eddie Hearn thinks he’ll retire...

If still wants to compete, which I'm sure he does, he should do so at a much lower level. He's young enough to develop interests in other areas that could provide him a good living whilst fighting at a more appropriate level for his skills. He seems like a nice lad but no point getting your brain ra...

Re: George Groves - what next?

I'd like to see him retire. He's made loads of cash, won a world title and been involved in some of the biggest fights of the past 10 years. What more could a fighter realistically ask for? His health.
He looked fleshy and old in the Smith fight.
Time to throw on a nice suit and do some punditry.

Re: Martin Murray Retires

I've always been a fan of Murray but I'm glad to see him hang them up. He was never going to trouble any of the big players in the division at this stage of his career, he'd have become a gatekeeper. Sad to hear he's not made the money he'd have liked from the sport. Getting stiffed that night in Ar...

Re: Jamie Moore

Frampton chose him. Fielding was happy to be there and murray is finished. Moore was given Frampton by MTK as part of a compensation package. He kind of inherited both Fielding and Murray by being in Oliver’s gym when he took a step back. Compensation for what? Getting shot? Can you elaborate, genu...

How does Ronald McIntosh keep getting work?

He's here again tonight on the BT card and he's already making my skin crawl. His commentary is the most irritating verbose nonsense and his interviews are stilted and offer no insight. I don't begrudge him making a living but surely I can't be the only one who's enjoyment of a night of boxing is sp...

I don't expect his career to be particularly exciting under the stewardship of FW. He's going to be undercard filler for a long time.

I have friends and family who have struggled through depression, some have barely survived it (literally) and it is still a constant battle for others.

I think Frampton is going to get old overnight. Warrington is in the ascendancy and the Jackal is a bit well thumbed and creased around the spine.
