This is why such a tiny town produces great amateurs in the dozens but not as many pro's but I feel that's changing a little now.. I think had Ellis had got down to the 13st 8 limit in the old days he could have definitely won domestic titles at least IMO...
Was he based in Liverpool and is that why you think that so many good ams dont become good pros because they get too big for their boots too early.

Good to hear about the Tiger Woods situation not reaching a billion, means you could still be in with a shot with being the first :TU:

Back to the main subject, what would Matthew earn in a fight when facing Fury?
Just wondered as he knew what was going to happen, but still got up in the ring in front of TV cameras and didn't perform at all.

Its just that he's obviously a known bloke around his town, and why would you take the humiliation of those fights?
