How much did Mick Currency offer Roddy Doran?

Damon Hague, beaten by Roddy Doran in November, wants to clean up his record in a defence of his spurious WBF middleweight title in March in Nottingham. It's a natural, this. Hague looked a bit unlucky to lose their last fight, but Doran boxed well and deserves a rematch for the title (their last fight was non-title).
So how much did Mick Currency offer Doran, who brought a lot of fans to their first fight in Derby (all of whom behaved impeccably)?
How much is a natural challenger for a 'world' title worth nowadays?
Four measly grand.

Bennie to clear the BBC bullshit up Roddy actually sold 260 tickets ONLY for that fight.

It's still a joke. I mentioned yesterday how William Abeylan was given 100 grand for stepping aside and allowing Scott Harrison his rematch with Manuel Medina. That kind of sums it up.

I know 260 is a lot of tickets especially when they travelled an hour over there but the BBC said on tv that Roddy had sold 1000 tickets for that fight
