Hugh (RIP), who was Phill's father I believe. I think Peter had a pro fight.
Aye wasn't sure about John's brothers

Must be making for some terrible viewing. It’s so flat here.

There is a local ticket seller - Harvey Dykes - but they have shoved him on last to keep everyone here.

It hasn’t worked. A lot of his fans have given up as well - it’s not far off midnight. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Wonder if the bookies will have Roman as a big favourite in all his fights.

I fought Harry Andrews in Brighton, football fan, sold the place out completely for a 4 rounder.
Paul Halpin could sell tickets too

Roman walks Davies on to a left hand and drops him hard, ref waves it off, heavy knockdown

Roman Fury's gait, body shape and mannerisms not unlike Tyson's.

Why would the BBBC sanction a heavyweight fight with a registered dwarf? Shameful

I didn’t stick around to watch that fight but there have been some amazing guys turn up to fight heavyweight debutants.

I remember I think Daniel Dubois being in with a guy who turned up to the weigh in wearing a t shirt saying ‘I’m Cornish. What is your super power?’

Turned out he had no super powers at all.

In a normal world a fight between Harlem and Benn as an eliminator for the British title would make perfect sense, it'd be an interesting clash of styles and personalities.

Senior isn't everyone's cup of tea but I've got to say i found it very refreshing to hear someone of substance in the game giving little Conor a bit of stick with his very thinly veiled references to him being a cheat. So many others have skirted round the issue which is pretty poor.

not much to write home about - in fact I forgot it was on tv until the very start of the main .

harlem is as irritating as his twat brother and neither impresses me .

this opponent was clearly picked to make eubank look good as he lacks speed / power and technique yet eubank was strugggling to deal with him .

I'd say he's too bland to be annoying in any way. Has the confidence of a fighter or is at least projecting that which is good. It was a standard performance by him. Good finish in the end but not a great performance. Needs to improve. I thought him and Jr got along well though so I'm surprised they seem to be competing for a Benn fight. Maybe they aren't as close as they seemed or maybe it's a case of Harlem saying to himself, Jr. has millions already, I'm taking my chance to make a few quid. Or they could be coming up with all this between them but I doubt Sr. Is involved in that type of thing or he's a superb actor.

Sr talking nonsense about Harlem moving up to 147, he'd get flattened

Yes he does, looks like the dad too. Also Tyson’s total lack of muscle or definition
