Where did he get his £900 from? How dear was his bread? Or did his Mrs take the lot? Bit silly hiding in the toilet on the train with that in his pocket.

I’m just finding it highly suspicious he walked to the hotel from Wincobank, malnourished, and got to the main man for a contract. Then hid in the bogs on the train home. It’s not a short journey. At all. Man deserves a medal doing that on a piece of toast a day.

Poppycocks are actually known as a food easily consumed whilst hiding in confined spaces, such as train toilets, which makes their selection a good example of Eubank’s intuitive maverick genius.
Whatever else he did in his life after boxing he could definitely find a way to nourish himself with a bit of poppycock*

Also Poppycocks, when combined with cooked bread (also known as toast) becomes a superfood, giving one the sufficient nourishment not only to survive but engage in vigorous activities such as sparring for days on end.Counter-puncher wrote: ↑30 Dec 2020, 21:28Poppycocks are actually known as a food easily consumed whilst hiding in confined spaces, such as train toilets, which makes their selection a good example of Eubank’s intuitive maverick genius.

The universe is important.
Your health isn’t in boxing if you want to get anywhere, it’s an unhealthy thing to do.
That’s why only two out of 1,000,000 boxers made millions at the top with their hands up at almost all times - Graciano Rocchigiani, Winky Wright.
