I met Bernd Boente yesterday

Post by deadpan »

In Hamburg. He's a really warm and friendly fellow. He genuinely didn't seem to know if Wlad would return. He fist bumped me as he left. I've seldom felt so macho.

The response would have probably been a blank expression followed by 'who?' :lol:

Sounds like neither Boente not Kugan know who each other is

I'm 6 foot and he's taller than me.

IFL are wasting their privileged position in my view. Helder is a ruddy awful interviewer and reeks of smugness in every sentence.

Kugan is the most diligent ass-kisser in business and far from the smartest man. I honestly can't remember any journalist that licks the asses of guys he is interviewing as much as Kugan does, and I bet he doesn't know boxing history at all.

What happened with the handover to Kugan from Couch, when iFilm London was rebranded to iFL and she was given the boot?

Hearn just said in an interview with Kugan that Bernd is 6'5 :confused: .... what the hell was Kugan on about with the Dwarf comments ha

He's not that tall, but he's clearly 6' with plenty of change.
