Alba- Ronnie is chasing a fight with Badger as he doesnt want to fight Journeymen, and in real Paul is in no position to quote Ronnie as he hooked Badger from his line up at last minute, for whatever reasons is irrelevant as if this is the circumstances hes going to be in hes in no position to refuse fights really if he cant get them on his own show. I like the prospects show as iv said to you mate and the point i was trying to make is that they do not have the same clientel or the same roster of fighters that are used either. Not a dig or that just stating that fighters like McEwen etc havnt fought on your bill yet which in honesty confuses me as Paul is quite brutal and honest when it comes to ticket selling abilities and Craig is proberly one of the better ones:)

I hear Paul Graham after serious negotiations has agreed to change his promotional company name to "Dodger Promotions" :s Is this just to avoid the tax man?! ;)
P.S I had to fight a journeyman because fighters wouldn't fight me... I was meant to be fighting Ryan Collins but Morrison refused the fight and told him if he taken the fight he would release his contract... Turns out he released his own contract now ;)

But there's getting a shot and having a chance to win!
Look at how many of Tommys Scottish fighters over say the last 5 years have won a title when challenging? Not many is there?
IMO Alex is by far the better manager he might not get you as many title shots but when he does you will be ready.he got some talented boys coming through this year roberts,Simmons and slowly and of coarse wee Simmo as well as Ricky.

I agree the Alex is a better manager than Tommy.. Only thing I disagree with is both are very safe when accepting fights. They don't take any risks and prefer there fighters in one sided fights.. I think both managers would be a lot better accepting 50/50 fights maybe some of the fighters could move along a bit quicker... It's not just these two seems to be a problem in boxing full stop. He does have some talented guys do feel Simmo and Simmonds will be British champs this year... Roberts is a good boxer but too many good boxers ahead of him at Superfeather and is the same for Slowey he could do well if he could make super bantam. These guys all need tested.. Simmo v Buckland...Simmonds v Conquest.... Roberts v Cacacae(would say Clark but won't happen) and Slowey v Ryan Walsh all 50/50 fights which should happen

In that case why not fight Anthony Cacace?

I would love to fight Cacace but his camp don't want the fight as they say we will meet at title level :s I don't understand why we don't fight now then again whenever if we both make title level... They refused fight with me and badger as seemingly Kris Hughes is fighting Anthony Cacace in march so they claim anyways :(

Alba is this fight happening between Kris Hughes and Anthony Cacacae??? Think Cacacae would be favourite. He looked quite slow and Hughes is a good tidy boxer if you could stay away there would maybe be a shock.. There seems to be a lot of fighters saying that they will fight Ronnie at title level... Come on guys you have to get there first. Has got to be the worst excuse I have ever heard.. Just come out and be honest he's to dangerous and your not willing to risk your fighter(cash cow).. Back on topic will Butcher be fighting for the British title this year??

You think you'd be hoping local fighters get a sell out Billy, not mocking them if they don't.

of coarse they will need to put locals on,however if you cant sell a 400-500 arena ou,t it isnt going to have much of a atmosphere in an arena that holds 3 to 4 times that amount is it/
obviously the boxers cant do to many tickets for whatever reason it is hard times though
