I spent time with him last summer at the hotel he stayed at ahead of the Barnsley show where Simpson fought Chelli (pure coincidence, I was meeting my mother in law there as they were over from Oz), and he said he was done with promoting and was just managing fighters. No idea if that has changed now.

Always respect your opinion Coco I thought he did ok and was loyal, the likes of Froch and Tyson lacked that. Just my opinion.

Re: Ed Robinson & John Whichusen
Is Mick ok healthwise ? Noticed him wearing sunglasses indoors at a couple of shows recently and he doesn’t come across as the kind of dafty who does that for show

mick is a top bloke …. i am convinced that if tyson fury hadn’t been CONTROVERSIALLY denied the David Haye fight … a victory would have shown even more mick could deliver the big fights amd more boxers would have signed with him.

It's going to be settled out of court in my opinion.

I heard they're settling it on the cobbles, undercard of Froch-Fury

Who else was meant to be involved in Blue Wolf Sports?

I'd be interested to learn if any sides who are involved in the court case have been making offers to settle though.
Often quite instructive to see which side of a case is making offers to settle. Good indicator of how strong they feel their case is + their chances of winning in open court.
The whole discovery process should have been completed by now so both sides and the court have access to each other's evidence and relevant materials.
Also at this point there will have been a costs hearing /costs decision regarding who is liable to pay costs depending on outcome of case, and what % of costs may be recoverable. Gonna be expensive for Boxxer if the court hasn't awarded them 100% costs, that solicitors firm they're using is very pricey.
Maybe the resident boxxer spokesman on the forum can find out for us.
Either way, I'm sure we will see a resolution quite soon.

you keep saying sky are not involved … are you sure??😉
you keep hinting that one side will not have the funds for the % of the costs … relax relax and relax😉
you hint at the resolution being near? i said march sky would return to boxing o the strict condition the case doesn’t bring up to many embarrassing points.
my reliable source tells me … one side should be waiting for the knock on the a very important delivery is due

Re: Ed Robinson & John Whichusen
What are you babbling about now?
I can't even make sense of what you're posting because it seems like you quote-posted yourself then replied "Interesting" to your own post. It's a mess lol.
Anyway - at the time I posted "Sky aren't involved", Sky wasn't involved - they weren't listed as a defendant. So Sky was at that time quite literally not involved in the court case.
Now they are.
The rest of it, my opinion hasn't changed. They won't be settling anything and your "£15 million" figure is ridiculous.
That said... Sky did get added to the docket in the end, which you did predict in January.
Maybe you're the brains behind all this..? Are you like a consultant /1-1 advisory on this? Would explain all the multilayered strategy chess being played at the top level. Hidden hand. Veteran insider.
