Any chance of a week without a Dave Allen thread appearing on the page?
Sick to death of the man, and genuinely baffled at the continued fascination with him.

If the Doncaster Dome fight happens (it's rumoured he's already changed his mind) we could finally see Allen Vs Bennett for the Central Area title

If you are on about Mark Bennett, he hasn't fight in a few years, so cannot just get into a central fight. But a good fight few years ago when it could have been made I guess.

Dave Allens dad once fought on the same card as Alexis Arguello and Barry McGuigan.
I was there that night, bought a ticket on the night as it was far from a sell out
I remember watching Arguello v Watt on the telly.
Jim Watts fights were a big deal back then. I remember him against the Bubblegum Kid & that teams whinging afterwards.
