Hot prospect Frankie Gavin will now headline at London's York Hall this Saturday (19th February) after former gym Tony Bellew withdrew because of a hand injury.
The show's main event will now be an eliminator for the British title with an English title fight as chief support. It could do with a bigger title being on the line.

Whats the English title fight?

Larry vs John is Southern Area, Fury is English Champion, fighting on the same night on a different bill.

My mistake. It is an even weaker bill than I was suggesting, although they are both good fights.

I quit last week but failed again for about the 20th time, I feel your pain. When I played a lot of football and was regularly running/gyming I found smoking counter productive but could still not quit!

Will do mate, I'm ringside but no idea which bit as it changes depending on who you get yer tickets from.

Heh, my pockets are deep. If there's one thing I'm good at it's getting the beers in.

I think the last time I was there I ended up acosting Wayne Alexander in the bar and chatting about boxing and his old fights etc. I told him I used to box as a kid and he laughed and said yeah mate the only thing you box now is chips. For once I was lost for words.

I normally go in the little pub straight across the road. Bit spit & sawdust but you always get a few old faces in there plus a late drink . If no one knows what I look like I'll probably have a black eye or two, ha
