And About Chris coming out of his comfort zone mate :lol: he's only ever fought at home once, and that was his last fight, he hasn't got no big promoter, no media attention, no sponsors, no big fanfare :shame: he doesn't know what comfort is mate, boxing away from home where he hasn't even got no fans :lol: believe me Billy he does it the hard way mate.
I only ment confort zone in regards to fighting at home,we were willing to travel to Wolverhampton were all the points you make apply to yourselves.Stephen would only have brought 10 fans they cant do anything when the bell goes.
Anyway if the fight happens it happens. :TU:

Perhaps more fighters wouldnt mind fighting in Scotland if they didnt always get robbed!

It was agreed for the Wolverhampton bill.

If neither fighter is injured or anything why not go with the original fight!

Well if simmons a big ticket seller which i think he would be with amateur back ground it would make sense aving the bout as a headliner. But to move it from wolves to scotland at short notice u can see how that looks to people.

The fight will be happening, and it will be in Scotland on the 29th June, the circumstances have now been made clear to us and we fully understand. These circumstances have absolutely nothing to do with the personal prefrences of Billy Nelson, Stephen Simmons or the rest of there team, it just makes business sense for the bout to be staged in Scotland so that's what will happen. We have the up most respect for Billy and the team, they are great professionals and we are still looking forward to a fantastic fight. Team Keane

im gutted this fights been moved i got tickets and thought this was a very interesting fight with 2 prospects. i got tickets to watch a british title fight with decent undercard now no brit title and the most appealing fight on the undercard gone :witzend: walsh is now topping against who knows and ive lost a gud 10 rounder which will b replaced with a one sided fight v a journeyman. (40-36) not happy at all

I think the show will be pulled. No disrespect to Jason welborn or Scott Haywood but can't see allegedly backing as a main event.

Stephen has got two very fast hands and will beat him in every single department and imo stop Chris

Frig me, who wrote that for you ! :wave:

I hope that you can see how frustrating this type of thing is for supporters.

Both camps have made a number of comments on this thread, and have willingly put certain information in the public domain.

However, as is often the case both camps are now being selective in what they say.

What I don't understand is. if you are not going to tell the full story why not just keep quiet in the first place ?

Because its nobody elses buisness other than the respective teams to know exactly whats happening,we have nothing but repect for Chris and his team,were highly confident going into this fight and with respect Chris hasnt achieved a fraction what Stephen did in the ams, we hope to fight for domestic honours very very soon.Please dont take offence by my comments but the most important people in boxing are the boxers and they have every right to know whats going on first after all it is there careers. :TU:

Tut tut my man the times nearly here and squeaky bum has arrived,read your post above we have no problem coming all of a sudden sorry we dont wont it!
I told you even though its not an eliminator we have no problem whatsoever having a grade A English referee to officiate the fight but clearly thats not good enough? Stephen would have won this fight with ease,far to complete for Chris, your man would have been stopped and badly beaten!
We will move on and win the British title.BN.
