Seems to b waiting for a British title shot. Withdrew from eliminators and a rematch with Smith was in talks fell thru over purse and the weight the fight was at.

I don't expect we'll ever see Kenny Anderson in the ring again.

Bradley Saunders.... Came back after a long absence, did an ifl video saying he was taking it serious now and he's not been heard off since.

Noticed Fred Evans is back this weekend.
Brad will be back soon, he got married this summer and his business is constantly expanding.

Good to hear. Comes across as a good lad. Eddie planning a north east show in jan/feb so be perfect for him.

Cheers mate for update. He's gotta do something soon surely.

As I say know very little about him but have moved into the area and would probably go along if he fights copperbox/York hall in a decent one.

Yea he was.. if I remember correctly he was considered to be unlikely to ever walk again at one point.
I know his brother who's a decent enough lad on unlicensed circuit. Different surname so I'm assuming grew up separately hence him going unlicensed route rather than amateurs but I expect he will turn pro as he's only a young lad.

“Allegedly” attacked..... story was very fishy.

Oh he had a bruise of that there is no doubt. But the story had more holes in it than Kalle Sauerland’s septum....

What is the real story? Was the injury self inflicted? Or if not, what really happened?

I thing Kevin Mitchell's brother lost one and disappeared.

Was going to say Harry Khan but I think he has a fight lined up any time now.

There were a few Manchester lads - ABA champions who I think were training with Gallagher that I haven't heard from, I think one was called Bunn.
