D worry about getting hurt permanent against a big hitting heavy
I figure he'd take me out quickly enough. All of his opponents would be taking more licks than I would. To be honest, I think fighting someone like Lomachenko would be worse - you would probably take a long, sustained beating before going down. One massive punch would probably do less damage.
You think some random guy would take a ‘long, sustained beating’ from lomachenko rather than getting crushed by the first decent shot that lands?

Oh, and no amount of money. I dunno who the British cruiserweight champ is but I’m pretty sure the risk of brain damage or something is too high to justify it as I’m at a happy point in my life and dont ‘need’ the money per se. Even if I was broke I would probably want 100k or something.

Loads of fatties and manlets about who will weigh in as heavyweights day to day and probably believe they are in decent shape. Most are probably three or more stone over what they'd fight at for real, they just don't know it.
Yeah some people don't actually realise just what it really means to get to fight weight. I'd say most light weights would look in really good shape a stone over the weight let alone a supermiddle/light heavy

If my name is first on the promotion, and i can wear Reyes gloves, and i can walk out second, i'll do it for a grand and a free Nandos meal for two voucher.

But forget the 12 weeks notice, only tell me a few hours before so as i have just enough time to get up of the couch, into my car and into the venue right on time for the first bell. That way i dont have to spend to much time sitting around stressing before the slaughter takes place.

I'm amazed quite a few want so much - six figures etc.

Lets' be honest, what would likely happen?

You'd take a few jabs, maybe a dig to the guts, hit the deck and be forced to stay there for a 10 count.

You would get up and be alright.

£20-30k I reckon.

Maybe that or the fact that the boxer knew you had not trained and he walked over and hit you with one huge shot bang on the temple and knocked you unconscious.

I'd do it for 10 large, although given the power I carry it wouldn't surprise me if I knocked the guy out.
