Anyone know what happened when King Chav met Rhino?
Wasn't that prize chav who won the lottery supposed to be fighting Rhino from Gladiators in some celeb fight at the York Hall last night? Anyone know what happened?

Just googled it:
Brawl ends celebrity boxing launch
A "celebrity" boxing match launch between lottery winner Michael Carroll and ex-Gladiator Rhino has ended in a full-scale brawl.
Carroll, the former binman who won £9.7 million on the lottery, and famously blew a fortune on drugs, alcohol and banger racing began the launch of the fight by posing for photographs with his rival at the Repton boxing club in east London.
But the event quickly descended into chaos after the pair lobbed insults at each other.
Rhino, 34, whose real name is Mark Smith, began to irritate Carroll when he said at the press conference: "I respect him for getting up and doing this for charity but he has no chance of winning. This is way out of his depth."
Carroll responded: "We'll see what happens on the day."
But sparks flew when Oliver Wilson the ex-Gladiator's boxing manager said to Carroll: "It's all very well getting pumped up with your mates and having a pub brawl but you're going to be very lonely in that ring.
"Stay on the farm and trash up your cars. That's the only thing that you're good at."
At that point the launch of the match on June 4, which is expected to be televised, at York Hall in Bethnal Green, east London became a huge punch-up.
Rhino was the first to jump out of his seat and start the fight with Carroll's entourage before furniture was thrown over and security attempted to end the brawl.
Afterwards Carroll, 22, who said he was beginning his training regime today said: "I would have killed him. I felt a couple of digs but not much, on the night I will give as much as I get."

Think perhaps the ref scored a draw to avoid a possible riot?
This idiot has agreed to a rematch as well.
