He helps organise a lot of the gigs, he a lot of rounds sparring with Tyson too
I suppose while theres a market for this sort of thing , there will always be people who will capitalize ,, will say, seen this Egan fella on U tube i think it was and he was very very respectful about ANYONE who has been in the ring , For me though i never have and never will go to this stuff ,, mAYBEE IF IT WAS LOCAL AND T WAS A REAL TOP CLASS BOXER i could be tempted but then again only if it was about technical actual boxing stuff , and actually learn something .

He should be happy to be on the stage with these guys but instead he puts it up to Witherspoon in front of everyone. I only wish it was Bowe he was putting it up to there.

Current fighters I can't think of any. I used to dislike (hate too strong a word) Barry McGuigan for his dirty fighting and avoidance of Azumah Nelson, now I like the chap and his boxing punditry, same with Hatton and his avoidance of Witter.

Witherspoon and Egan have been doing the dinner circuit together for years, I think they get on, I don't think there was much to see there. Met them both a few times and are nice guys.
Does have me stumped , why people wold go to work and shell out there hard eared money to listen to someone like Egan , Witherspoon i can understand , but Egan and others like him Courtney , them football holligan dipshits , i just can't fathom it
Neither can I to honest. Not sure what the attraction is. I could half understand it if they were young and impressionable but some of these are grown men and women. :doh: :doh:

We live in a day and age where girls can sign up to onlyfans and make thousands a month from idiot men buying pictures. When you look at it like that, a few quid to listen to Witherspoon, Chuvalo, Morrison doesn't sound too bad.

O'Hara Davis generally comes across as a dick in interviews.

TheLeprechaun wrote: 29 Jun 2020, 10:38 I don't mind Joe Egan generally but he achieved nothing in boxing and gets treated as if he did. What really pissed me off was seeing him act the hard man with Tim Witherspoon. Witherspoon is a gentleman but at the same time he is as hard as they come. Mouthy Egan squares up to him here and I'm not sure he realizes that he's squaring up to the toughest man he's ever met. He's lucky Witherspoon had too much class to sort him out there and then. Egan seems like the type of guy who'd square up to Riddick Bowe in the street and then be shocked that he is taking a serious hiding on the spot.

It would be worth the ticket price alone for a photo with Don Johnson.

At least you can wank over those pictures though, that's far better than listening to some old bloke talking about the olden days.

Put like that...... I already disapprove of that man....especially if found guilty in a court of law for something with the evidence that proves he did it. Outside of that I congratulate you for bringing this to our attention. Eddie will promote him if found innocent.
