I think the BBBoC were very lucky last night. Sanctioning fights like this is very dangerous and to be honest I'm very surprised it was sanctioned by them.

They sanctioned Freddie Flintoff to box and got away with that and learned their lesson I guess because they refused to give, was it Rio Ferdinand? A boxing licence as I'm guessing their arses were twitching before Flintoff got in the ring.

I imagine last night Robert Smith had golfers arse when Francis tumbled in the second round and lie there motionless for a short period if time. It's time imo that sanctioning bodies stopped all this nonsense sanctioning stupid fights before someone is killed. Did the BBBoC make a handful of silver last night? They need to get their act together before there is a death.

The truth is that because of their structure, they have to acquiesce.

If they don’t do what their members want, their members will find alternatives.

Lets hope these youtubers and MMA guys leave boxing alone now.

Being a pro boxer should hold a level of competence around it. Can you imagine the Tennis authorities letting someone play Djokovic on centre court who has never played a match before?

This is how ridiculous all this mma/boxing nonsense is. Only a matter of time before soneone dies or gets left disabled. The shit will hit the fan as well when one of the girls starts slurring their words...

Why wouldn't it be allowed?
Obviously they shouldn't have done it but there's no legal issue.

UAE Boxing Commission. They'll probably get less complaints from them

The BBBoC are quite good at safety etc is it a bad thing they’re involved? Not trolling just asking.

True. Whatever the state of our refs and judges, you'd much rather have the BBBoC safety measures than say, Japan.
