And Gary Lockett, some careers were 90% business and very little sport.

The odd great fight here and there of course, hard to forget Earl v Katsidis, Gomez v Arthur, Arthur v Foster Jr, Burns-Martinez.

Really didn't enjoy the reigns of Calzaghe (though he proved himself 8-9 years after winning his first title), Scott Harrison, Enzo Macc. Hoping people aren't seeing this as the good old days.

I remember when elite fighter Kell Brook defended against Kev Bizier, and when a novice heavyweight was PPV in a British title fight and against a crap American import. I remember Ringside getting sacked off as well.

Earl-Katsidis was ITV as were a few others in that era. A few on Setanta as well.

Classic fight! I think we all thought that Kadtsidis was a future great world champion............Maybe not. (still a big fan of his)

As much as I dislike Fast Car, let's not forget that ol' rabbit house has an established history of:

Suing people when he doesn't like what they say (why is he called allegedly on here again?)

Running companies that pay their fighters late or not at all

Giving evidence in Court that judges find 'untruthful'

Strong arming fighters into signing contracts

..he's not a panacea.
