That money would be better spent on half decent tickets on a good live fight card or something.

To my knowledge, I once got a free pass to a Roberto Duran night..... You sit down, have dinner. There is a high table with the boxer in view.

After dinner and before pudding (I think) there is a Q & A session with the boxer. Generally this involves a number of local 'faces' and 'hard men' asking asinine, predictable questions such as 'who did you think was the best fighter you fought' or 'out of all the fighters you fought, who hit you the hardest?'.

The poor boxer has to pretend he's interested in the idiot's question and answer it sincerely. Afterwards, those with more than a tenner left line up and get a chance for a photo. (Actually I'm very proud of my photo with Duran. Poor guy had apparently got his room burgled before the event.)

And that's about it. If you really are a fan of the fighter and you're unlikely to meet him again (for example he's based abroad) - it's probably worth it.

But I would be extremely concerned if anyone genuinely booked a ticket to 'a night with Eddie Hearn'.
Who on Earth would burgle Roberto Duran's room? :o

It's lucky they didn't do it in 1978, or he would have marmalised them. :doh:

I can't believe we haven't brought back Joe Calzaghe's old nickname of 'Sick note' for Haye.

I will never be interested in what Haye does, he owes me around £200 on lost hotel fees and booking fees. Annual leave loss of earnings @ 8 hours of time and a half. Not to mention countless hours of trying to recoup my money through Travelodge which was unsuccessful even though I took out cancellation insurance.

I hate the word David Haye, multi millionaire, people like myself who are working class buy tickets for events expecting a boxer to show, not just once but twice. Fake injuries then days later see photos of something that an injury could not do.

Goodbye.

He's on the panel for the Frampton fight. He's been asked, weighed it up, realised there's better exposure in the ITV gig, so let the Cardiff promoters down.

this has really put me off Haye if that's the case. I know a lot on here don't like him anyway but this has pushed me further into that camp.

Haye will have taken a deposit from the promoter and there's no way he'll get his money back from the hotel at this short notice - food etc ordered in advance.
I feel for the organiser.

We don't know if Haye has made it right with the promoter, do we? Either way, anybody who books him, or buys a ticket, nedds their head feeling - groundhog day.

P.S. The guys sat either side of him tonight in Belfast both look like they're trying to outdo each other in the cock-sucking stakes.

Hardly a surprise is it? I still feel sorry for the people who've booked hotels/b&bs. Even though they knew the risks involved with someone like David Haye.
