If the money is right for Ronnie why not go down to Norwich for the rematch and to make sure that there is no hometown decision like there was last time (according to Ronnie) just knock walsh out then it doesnt matter about the scoring does it ?

if you don't mind me asking how do you know its the highest purse and how much was on offer
I think tony has taken the fight down off of you tube as i cant get onto it no more. Ryan Walsh believes he won 8 rounds and thats him being generous. He said he will upload the official video but I doubt every single thing that comes out his mouth. Ronnie never celebrated after his victory so that says it all according to Ryan. Ronnie isnt happy unless hes stopping people. He didnt celebrate any victorys over Abdul Rashid or Krystian Laight due to being frustrated with his performence. I know Ronnie is a bit like Marmite you love him or hate him but credit where its due if hes fit and given time to train he will fight almost anyone. Not many people would go down to norwich and fight someone who is 14-0 :)
Yes guys agree completely a lot of names there and would be good fights.. Unfortunately it seems that most don't want to risk their records bit if a shame. I hear Truscott is now at Lightweight. Seen Troy James fight would be a good fight. Sure that was tried before but worth a go again. Some of those names are not willing to fight unless its for a British Or bigger Title dont ask me why but prospect v prospect doesn't seem to happen too often. I personally want Ronnie to fight in domestic fights but I think he is going to need to get good quality foreign opponents. Must be a hard job being Ronnie's manager just seems so frustrating

Ryan said he got pennies for the first fight!! The offer to Ryan Walsh was £3k plus 70 tickets!! At £30 each that's an extra £2100 and with the Farmy Army I'm sure he would have sold them!! £5k for a none title fight is a pretty good purse or are my wrong? Would have got between £2-3k for his English title I'm guessing!! We were talking about taking the Norwich fight as Ronnie wants that fight but no offer was forthcoming from Walsh's team and Tony needs to move forward to keep Ronnie active!

Best advice to give them , if your offering that sort of money you could get another fighter in or even a decent foreigner over and above walsh . Lets hope you can get it or another fight
Is Walsh injured ? Does he have another opponent lined up ? Does he want more money ?
My view. A lack of respect for someone who's closely linked to a boxer to be using a forum like this to try and embarrass another professional for not taking a fight; and to be quoting figures which we've no idea whether they're true or not. Especially when the proposed opponent doesn't have a direct right to reply.
Black Sam Bellamy- In another instance I may totally agree with you a, but Ryan Walsh deserves none of my respect due to his lack of respect for Ronnie,Respect is a 2 way street usually, Calling him a coward, Saying he faked an injury and overall disrespect since the fight. I am no angel but I like to think that I am honest and been brought up not to tell lies and to see someone like Ryan tell so many lies over twitter im starting to think he believes them himself. Ryan is not taking this fight for whatever reason fair enough but dont go on twitter and reverse it to ronnie and say its him refusing a fight and question him as a person? I understand you as a neutral may see it this way but hey end of day Ronnie went down to Norwich already, over to New york to fight someone 4 weights above when a world champion kickboxer, Over to Spain to fight 2 weights above him, World title fights in Ireland and France and only fighting a home show 5 times in his life. Maybe the reason things in boxing are the way they are is because nobody ever tells it how it is and reveals the reasons why a fight breaks down:)

Why would you hide a purse offer?? This is the problem with boxing. Make things transparent then fighters need to fight each other or be exposed. Ryan has not said anywhere on twitter than he offered Ronnie the fight first.. I kept putting it to him that Mervyn had not made an offer ad Ronnie himself actually sent Ryan a message asking him to get an offer sent to him!! I understand Ryan wants to save face and fair enough!! Seen all this before.. The fights dead in the water as I say hopefully we can get a fight a lot bigger than that one.. I'm of the opinion that we are the fans that pay to go to the fights we deserve to know the truth and I will say it whether people like it or not!
