hopkins got paid 100k to wear one vs trinidad, then bet it on himself at 4/1 , so the story goes

It was/still is big in Germany. I remember Sinan Samil Sam and Sven Ottke with them on their backs during the early to mid 2000s. I think one of them was advertising a condom brand.

Declan Taylor of Boxing Scene wrote this about the Sheeraz fight:

It had been suggested that Mytrofanov would represent the toughest test of Sheeraz’s career to date and could cause problems for the Englishman.

Just thrun a few quid on Barinchyk (sp?)

Awkward but for a reason. They’re both respecting each other but if it goes it goes to Ivan

Yes if Mytrofanov had magically grown 6 inches overnight he would’ve cause Sheeraz all kinds of problems

Probably 10. I've got a tenner on Dubois for 2nd round KO at 125/1. Not bad for a puncher in two horse race

The switch steps here are brilliant. He should be capitalising on that ability more.

You've got more chance of Laurel and Hardy rising from the dead for an impromptu rendition of On the Trail of the Lonesome Pine.
