Harrison Barker. Very tough kid. Got to a national youth final and always given the top kids wars in the championships. 75kg is hard up here, he boxed Oli Male twice and Robert Dunn. I speak with Hammy all the time. Still gutted about the nationals but he’s doing Haringey. He’s good enough to go to British level for me but I don’t know who’ll sign him.

I think they’re doing ringside at £90 and a vip at £150. Floor 45 balcony 30.

Just another journeyman for Allen Mick? Or can we expect someone like Dan Garber. I'm saying Dan Garber as I messaged Dan and asked him if he was going to fight Dave. All I got was a 'like' on the post.

I'll just be another journeyman.

seems very pricey for this level? unless they got some good fights on the rest of the card, but ususally allen's knockover jobs seem like pretty minor cards

If I was managing Dave Allen, I'd give him a run of ten winnable fights against Viktar Chvarkou-level opponents over the next two or three years, build up his record (Mark De Mori-style), then cash out with a shot at the WBA "Regular" title or a similarly sh#t belt.

He'd likely get stopped within a few rounds (due to engaging in another mismatch), but it would at least give him a decent retirement farewell payday for a stadium-filling fight in his hometown of Doncaster.

I know what I’ve said seems harsh, but Dave has taken a lot of punishment, was never a top-level heavyweight, and spent much of his career being used to build up other fighters.

He also admitted not that long ago that he'd lost his hunger for boxing. And he’s already retired twice from the sport.

At this stage, I think he's only fighting for the money – the very likeable guy hasn’t got any confidence in himself to achieve anything meaningful. So he might as well build a hefty retirement pot before he hangs up his gloves and takes up boxing punditry.

He certainly won't be fighting for money in Rotherham, and I wager he will be paying the journeyman opponents wages too.

Again in Donny, I would again say if his fight is 4 or 6 rounds undercard, he will be paying his opponents wages and not earning himself.

Not a chance Dave will be on the payroll in Rotherham.

The 150 is pricey. The 90 and 45 are standard. The 30 is very cheap. You wont see many 30's even at small hall. They're usually 50/60 starting point.

Well, you jumped straight from X and got it completely wrong.... Daves allocation for the bout on June 20th have sold out, the show itself hasn't and other boxers have them. Could cost the fighters sales posting like that.

On here?

Instagram actually. His post says his tickets anyway.

Are the other boxers advertising on Boxrec? Which boxers are they? I’d love to help promote them.

Fight Week!!

[Ruthless-RKO]

Apparently Allen's down to face Ross McGuigan now.

For this card

[margaret thatcher]

in under a year mcguigan gone from a 7-2 southern area belt holder at light heavy, to a 7-10 heavyweight journeyman

[MasterG]

What happened to the original opponent?

The card seems to have shrunk a bit as well. I wonder if Allen is the main event, because that's the only way the audience will sit it out.

I got my tickets from Liam Carrigan who is fighting on the card but apart from that fight and Allen it could be an early exit if Allen is on before the main event.

Meaningless fight really isn't it? Not sure where Allen wants to be at? Apparently he paid to get on the card but I don't see the point in this fight.

Maybe as long as he's coming off a win, any win he's always in line for a big money fight.

[SeanBrennan]

Blimey.

[MasterG]

Well I've got the 85 quid ringside for the Rotherham show, me and the grandson, hotel stay at Greene King, it's a night out. Few beers and a fried chicken supper.

Then roll on the Donny show
