The problem is Kinahan is about fifty levels above Essex Boys and Krays.

So if the Essex Boys and that were levels above the Kinahan, that wouldbe be a problem?

If you were to take Gilbert Mendoza, Mauricio Sulaiman and Daniel Kinahan and you had to rid 2 of them for boxing forever, I'd keep Kinahan

There’s a good few connected to boxing who could do with being swept aside. Maybe now it can be seen now low the sport has stooped it will force a major look at other aspects of the sport.

I don’t really think that Woke applies to this. The programme wasn’t about people being outraged about social media comments, it was about murder, gun running and industrial level class A supply.
If you think it’s about people being upset over name calling, or struggling to appear “right on” you’ve missed the whole point.

The game is to end the legitimisation of one of the worst drug dealing criminal murderers in Europe, If Kinahan didn't want this kind of attention, he shouldn't have been sending dozens of hitmen out on the streets of several different countries in Europe to conduct a massacre, the level of violence perpetrated by these guys and the fact they load neighbourhoods with Heroin just cannot be swept under the rug

Saudi Money shouldn't be taken either, but Kinahans control of boxing is something that cannot be allowed to grow

I would rather Irish boxing died than be "saved" by Kinahan blood money

Think about how much publicity the Range Rover murders got in England, 3 guys killed, the Krays killed something like 2 people? The Kinahans have killed dozens of people in these fashions
not being funny but how could any boxing club in the east end avoid the krays, how could any business in london from the 60s ,on wards avoid being taxed or being rolled by gangsters in london , unless you where old bill, or bigger gangsters you were paying some one, no doubt about it, so is it just a time thing then, and i will say this now i aint talking up the criminality its just it tentacles are so deep rooted , only way to stop it is go amuture take money out the game

I'm not saying they could have avoided it I'm saying the deal with the Kinahans is they are 100 times worse

The Sopranos writer Davd Chase was getting worried that the fans of the show were starting to see the gangsters as a comedy act more than sinister murderers, so he deliberately added the scene of Ralphie beating his pregnant girlfriend to death just as a reminder to the audience what kind of people these are

Get ready for a bland statement about how he’s not connected to MTK any more combined with a bit of spiel about how the fighters he advises love him.
Nothing about his activities outside boxing except possibly a quick “ive never been convicted of anything” and certainly nothing about where all the money has come from.
