Trouble is I don't blame him , it's the matchmaker and promoter and sky that want calling out .

Totally agree, boxer not at fault. Should be paid

Tbf Diamante has always said he repeats the names twice as a nod back to the old times and said Ed Derian was a favourite of his who also done it, I don't think he's ever claimed to be the only one. I agree with what you say here, I obviously wasn't clear in my post. My point was, if another curren...

i read they used to repeat surnames twice because the audio on the mics was unreliable back in those days, so they did it to make sure ppl got 2 chances to hear the name of each fighter I thought it pre dated even microphones, when they said the name to both sides of the venue. Either way it is rea...

Totally agree, he even says it at the weigh in now

I think Kash 𝑭𝒂𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒒 is off this card.. He weighed in, but no mention on the website today or the running order. Yeah his fight is off mate he posted it on Instagram How come? One of the team tested positive. Can’t have been Kash or his trainer, they were in the bubble for the weigh in, must have be...

They usually 'curtain off' the vast majority of the arena. I suspect they'll be around 2,000 tickets on sale, and it will not be a sell out. 2000 would be exceptionally poor IMO. Any idea what the last WBSS did? I know they had Inoue on the bill as well but I recall a really decent atmosphere on TV

Eventually Joe Nothing worse than a brave corner!! Respect to Scott Quigg

MC just called this the co-feature contest.

Buatsi now a PPV boxer?

Double surname thing goes way back to the 20’s when the crowds were huge and the PA system was just poor speakers on poles dotted around the place. It was simply a way of ensuring the whole crowd caught the name. There has been no need for a long time with the advance in audio quality. It’s been res...

Fighters getting announced as "former undefeated"...

It’s not the fighter, it’s referring to the title. If he’s not lost a title in the ring, “former, undefeated, WBC International Champion”

Is this MC paid by the word

McGuigan resigned from the company, too. Exactly!! In a limited company, being a Company Director doesn't necessarily mean you're a shareholder, although you may be. You can also be a shareholder without being a director. If this is the only evidence of Frampton leaving Cyclone then I'm not holding...

I wonder if this is Clark Sammartino :doh: He does have a white hair. http://boxrec.com/person/401118 Clearly he mixed up the fighters. Thats the only explanation. Thats an old picture. If any of you recorded it just go to round 3 and watch from 2.30 left of the round. Have a look he seems totally ...

Could also try the fighters mate, they've all got an allocation to sell. You could ring Gallachers gym

Looks like WBU still featuring on MBC shows

Cyclone again coming in and stepping on MGM toes who have had a show booked for the weekend after at the same venue. Think we bit of professionalism there and staying away from each other's dates. Be hard to sell two shows over 7 day period in Scotland. Date probably dictated by C5 but agree it's n...
