It is. Are you friends?

friends with who? There are several photos on both FB pages as they pages are public so no need to friend either.

Friends with Lee Murtagh. The full fight is on there. He’s a prolific poster so it’s a fair bit down on his page.

You couldn't make this up (unless you name was Rio)
Danny Willams boxes on a show and theirs no footage ... Worldwide coverage - Seems it really was Facebook Live after all.

Wouldlnt even watch it

Embarrassing

How can any title be on the line for this fight? Williams has been knocked out more times than anyone in history of boxing and McAllister hasnt fought since 2013,shows hoe bad williams chin is when a McAllister who has only 9 knockouts out of 38 fights against men 10st and under. Sh1t like this makes a mockery of boxing

Lee McCalliser' full record is below.
And yes BIBA are a proper sanctioning body- I watched a BIBA show from Cardiff a few weeks ago and the standard was good

Fckin ell he has a record like paul smith,fights guys with losing records then gets title shots,not proper title shots just paper ones like wbf or wbu and claim to have won a genuine world title,what a joke

McCallister has always been a good ticket seller, I guess he gets a much bigger cut of the tickets he sells doing it like this!
Also to bulk up to close to 15 stone he must be on a special diet!

Fair play to Danny for doing what he said and getting his daughters through private education , now that's done hes moving on from boxing . Nigerian Bodyguard though :)

He was the promotor of the show also lee murtagh is a promotor and refs on his own shows which some people might think is ridiculous but biba are obviously happy as long as they get their cut

Nice read. Fingers crossed that that's the last time we'll see Danny in the ring and he does well in his new career.

Hopefully now Lee has the WBU belt Cornish will step it up and go for his first world title

Shameful for boxing

Hardly proper competitive "fighting" is it

I cant see that happening.

What I can see however is Lee going down to cruiser and winning another world title, then light heavyweight, then super middleweight then middleweight, light middle ...................................... and being the only boxer of all time to win world titles at almost every weight

He said he was dropping back down to roughly welterweight.

It was in the sense that the guy who shouldn't have done, did.

I would respectively disagree with that statement. You had one fighter taking on a fighter known to be finished beyond all reasonable doubt, whilst his mate refereered the encounter. It's about as credible a victory as Trevor Berbeck's win over Ali with Parkinson's. It was a shameful fight. Would Lee put his hat in the ring with a Dillian Whyte, Tony Bellew or Tyson Fury? Of course he wouldn't.

Fair point.

The ending for this fight looked WELL dodgy

Lee wrestled Danny to the canvas (quite literally) - NOT A PUNCH

The Ref rules it no KD,

Danny got up, but by this time his corner had chucked the towel in - WFT??? It wasn't even a KD!!!

Ref accepted the towel & promptly stopped the fight!!!!!

when we (eventually) get to see the fight footage you will see what I mean!!

Apologies. I just read my respone to you back and it comes over as really stroppy. I didn't mean to be stroppy. I think, it's just, I now watch boxing through the eyes of a parent and find it difficult to watch people that have taken too much punishment, take more. I've always thought of Danny Williams as being a very decent bloke, and it says a lot about him that he has fought hard (literally) to give his daughters the best possible start in life, but I want them to be able to enjoy talking to their Dad and vice versa.

I think BIBA needs to be watched closely, otherwise they will have some tragedies (that could have been avoided) on their hands.

This whole shambles is disgusting and makes me sick. Everyone involved should - but won't - be ashamed of themselves.

On the plus side, Britain has a new world heavyweight champion and I am now counting down the days to McAllister vs Joshua.

Looks like the BIBA are now officially unlicensed boxing again with boxrec been announced as the sole source for professional boxing records , don't know how Gianluca di Caro will spin it claiming BIBA is pro boxing with no official record keepers now Fightfax arnt recognised , may be have Lee Murtagh as there official record keepers as he does everything else .

Hi mate been looking on the internet about this can u post a link please, thanks in advance.

Bristolcityfc1 wrote: ↑01 Aug 2018, 10:42 I love boxing be it BIBA, BBBOC & International- Boxrec appointing themselves as the sole source of boxing records- well they should be listing all the boxers's records. As it stands instead of being the bible of boxing- its the bible of some boxing.

Obviously some cards like in Thailand remain elusive Boxrec needs to be as near to 100% as it can be- not listing known fights is VERY poor indeed.

Exactly mate it's a shambles! Record keepers are ment to do just that keep record, where does it state that fightfax aren't recognised now? I seen something on twitter with someone saying that BoxRec were the only record keepers to apply to the ABC to be there official record keepers.

The boxing commisions voted 32 to 2 to make Boxrec the sole source for boxing records , press release to follow , Fightfax not recognised anymore .

It’s cringeworthy reading the BBC sport report.

Why it’s on there I’ll never know!
