Enjoyed that cheers Jamie

Still to this day shocks me some of the shite away fighters have to deal with!

I was lucky enough to walk in on this interview. What a laugh and excellently written by Jon.. I’m just glad he managed to keep out what he likes to do in the afternoons.. Keep up the good work Jon

In terms of sharing personal things he said the worst thing about prison was putting up with the lies that put him there.
We're the allegations against him false?

Domestic issue. There's always a grey area when it comes to these cases especially after a breakdown of relationship. Hell hath no fury like a crazy bitch

Ronnie was convicted for who he was and his occupation rather than anything he had actual done. Statements of what he could do rather than what he had done. Was a farce. First person to ever be convicted of such an offence. Ridiculous. Anyone who knows his ex knows exactly what she was like. Takes two to tango and of anything he was domestically abused. Ronnie is a pain in the arse but he's the type to help anyone. End of the day cross border law etc was Never gonna work and that's in the past. Anyone who knows him knows he's a nice guy. Bouncing back from the press abuse etc he's done great and we are all proud of him, most would react he shrugged his shoulders and trained.

And the way he was treated by boxnstion again his reaction came in his performance. People don't know the half of it. It's going to be a best selling book when he talks. Haha

Interesting interview, enjoyed it.

Particularly interesting the crap that away fighters have to put up with. It's definitely a psychological ploy to make the away fighter feel like the little guy and make his life harder.
Putting him in a crap little dressing room with another fighter, not letting him even know what gloves he'll be wearing until 50 mins before the fight, putting him in a hotel miles away, it's trying to psychologically beat him and make him use up energy before the fight.
Sad that they'd do such things, but also take it as a compliment that they obviously see you as enough of a threat to try this nonsense.

I hope Ronnie gets better treatment next time out, he aint pretty or glamorous but he's a decent fighter and he showed what he can do against Zelfa who had plenty of hype about him. Definitely sounds like a good book in the making anyway, he's not boring is he!

Our childhood was very entertaining to say the least. He holds many Dundee records, most golf balls fitted down a jumper at one time, ( stole from driving range) . Would need to ask police man who had to pick them up bit sure there was 300 odd ha. Also the oldest boy to build a free house, 17 or something and was a coincidence the women's window who it was situated beside was hot, it was also the quickest tree house to be destroyed.

Only ever paper boy to get jumped by himself!! Old school training methods on out for a run at midnight with a balaclava on knowing he will have to run harder when the police see him.. No being awkward or trying to screw him over is going to affect him.. Getting to school in the morning was more of a challenge than a cold dressing room ha

Guess I'll chuck my twopence in here! I was privileged that Ronnie trusted me enough to tell the truth which allowed him to open up. He's an incredible guy and some of the inspiring things I've seen him do but ask me not to say are amazing. If anyone deserves success for their commitment to the sport it's Ronnie. Hope it's me that gets to write the book when that time comes!!! Thanks to anyone that enjoyed it.
