I liked how the bloke who pushed Mitchell brushed away Eddie's hand and 6.46, then held up his hand warning off Eddie.

Nice to see Clifton doing well for himself, from British & European title challenger to Carl Froch lackey.
I thought Mitchell was doing 7 years?

Paul Smith said he couldnt get near stage , he was supposed to give some insight to sky on the weigh in after. Doubt sky would be happy being treated like that when, essentially, its their show.

There's some proper garbage being posted on here about Clifton.
Danconnolly - I can only assume you are referring to Ty Mitchell.
Clifton as Anzi has summarised is a very successful businessman and to call him a lacky is an insult Bluetongued.
Add to the list that he's an integral part of Fury's team as well.

Clifton is doing well for himself. He's got plenty of business intrests in Promoting, Owning Clubs, Security firms etc. He's also got excellent underrated boxing knowledge imo too. Oh and he's still a bad ass, so watch what your saying :DD

I was under the impression matchroom employ the security team and not Froch. Groves has decided to add his own security team who imo are far too on edge. I thought it was a face off between 2 security team members at 1 point, pathetic really.

Very disappointing - there was a severe shortage of lads wearing cool pleather jackets and wearing snide ray-bans indoors.

A 'team' that consists of Fury's dad (currently 'resting') Fury's uncle, Fury's cousin, indeed Clifton has done very well indeed to be regarded as 'an integral part' of such a prestigious team :lol:

Oh forgive me, I didn't see this piece of undeniable eveidence that undoubtedly proves .......ABSOLUTELY FECK ALL!!!!!!

Don't doubt that the young kung-fu practicing cage warriors who so very professionally protected Groves would "do" Clifton with ease, no one has said anything to the contrary. Clifton is still a bad ass though. Trust.

Who's the dude with the beard seems to be Groves head of security , he looked like a complete knob , pushing his way in on the face off . Either this is all a complete wind up and farce , and all these guys are going out the back , having a beer after and pissing themselves laughing , or there should be some serious questions , Security is the promoters responsibility , and it looks Eddie uses the guys in the blue ,, whereas Groves has brought in rent a thug

Like i said , its either all part of the show , or some fackwit is risking a situation , which could cost millions if it kicked off on that stage , and any of the fighters got hurt , and when you have got steroid heads , on a stage with bad feeling ,and cameras, to play up to , if it is'nt part of the show , They been facking lucky .

I'm sure Clifton wouldn't have been too worried, despite his age disadvantage

I thought professional security was about neutralising any conflict before it occurs and not a case of squaring up?

So one group are amateurs and the others not professional? In a 20 million pound event, ridiculous.

But it all adds to the pantomime that is a British Fight Night and who would be without it! I love all these rucks and kick offs around the event. No point trying to dress boxing up as a civilized sport. It is about fighting and snot and blood. I shouldnt like it and I should dissaprove but I CANT HELP IT!!!

Time for another drink to calm me down. Bollocks just wet meself again
