Not sure if anyone’s interested but thought this was brilliant to see. They had a war yesterday & then Simpson & his partner took Zucco & his partner out for a dinner in Barnsley today.
I wish the sport was like this more often rather than fake beef & scandals about PED’s & catch weights.

Ha ha that’s great. He seems such a good lad Callum, I can well understand why he’s so popular locally, a diamond - he tragically lost his sister a few years ago. I missed the second knockdown, as switched over to the HW fight, but he recovered well from the first one…
Will Boxxer have the clout to get him a world title shot?
I don’t think Zucco liked the Yorkshire pudding too much

I think his only hope is if there’s someone high in the rankings who doesn’t have much promotional backing when the titles get fragmented.
The other option is a fake title like a WBA regular or an IBO which I hope doesn’t happen.
It’ll probably end up with a trip to Riyadh deep on an undercard which would be a shame.

i get the impression that simpson is overachieving a bit and would fall short at world level.......i think also another euro guy like mbili would beat him. although if you get a title shot at the right time you sometimes dont even need to be that level to bring it home, so who knows.
