Does anyone know how Bruce got on with his appeal (not Court Action) against the Board following their decision to withdraw his licence.

Don't know how the appeal went, but the High Court case was thrown out, although a door was left open for future action pending his appeal at the Board. Interesting reading through the judgement that Bruce Baker acted as "the regulator" for the GBA as well as the promoter. In the judgement it says "He himself agreed that he did not check the medical records of any of the boxers. He "simply took the word of their managers"."
