Whos sanctioning Tony Oakey vs Jeff Lacy

[biglefthook]

This a biba/mbc event ?

[Kennyboy]

Not BIBA/MBC. Reading between lines it's a unsanctioned show Robin Reid is the ref

[Rexob]

WOW! looking forward to this one.

Shocked it aint a pro fight

Wasn't Tony Oakey due to fight Hosea Burton in a British title fight before he snapped his Achilles early this year?

[Cazelo]

Seems a total waste that it's not a pro fight. Wonder if lacy knows it's not a pro fight?

They will be getting paid

Be an exhibition surely similar to the ones Witherspoon goes round doing. Big name v former local favourite

[WildWaylon]

I thought Oakey retired yonks ago.

Dodson that was

[rossij8]

He was at Bristol City FC last week at half time being interviewed on the pitch

Was outside having a pint, wondered why he was there - really random

The JC v Lacy fight got me into boxing - amazing on ITV

What's the crack?

[Londonirish]

It was a white collar show. I watched it online. Lacey retired in about the 5th not sure why but Oakey was winning Lacey looked a shell of his former self but Oakey looked well and as good as I've ever seen him

Didn't see the fight, but seen a Pic of Tony and he looked in serious Shape, looked really really well

Cheers for that. Is Dodson v Burton still going to happen?

This is going ahead a second time this weekend.
Can Lacy not pass a medical anymore or something?

He’s a shot fighter aged 41 so sad that he continues to risk his health for a few quid

Strange that he isn’t flogging his name to pros though, hence the question. Surely the money isn’t much for this?
Also, anyone know why they are using a WBO belt in the promo videos, neither of them ever won one did they?

[MF DOOM]

I hear that Dr. Crippen passed Lacy as fit to fight and will be the ringside physician.

Who wants to pay to watch this shit?

Someone just sent me a picture of them with a belt with their names and the date etc on via Facebook.
I honestly think they have bought a replica belt off eBay and decided to fight for it.

[chinarich]

Very ‘professional’...

[Steveh583]

Cracks me up that at the close of 2018 we are talking about Tony Oakley rematching Jeff lacy
