headgear has a lot of haters, but without it cuts are way more common now, which is a total bummer in a tournament format

team gb boxing in finland atm, and in the semis there were at least 3 fights ended on cuts from head clashes (2 with gb boxers). one happened only a minute into the fight, so they went to a decision based on that 1 minute of the guys feeling each other out , which was kind of ridiculous, but what else could they do.
It happens all the time. More worryingly, in my opinion, is the reffing. A good friend of mine lost in the elite semis yesterday on a split. He got a standing count in the last round without getting hit. The kid who beat him had two dodgy counts in his favour in the bout before... A London kid.
What gym is the London boy out of Mick
West Ham. It was a close fight but that count was a joke.

He's very good and fan friendly. He'll do loads of tickets to the Albanians and him and Leo are really close friends. It's not Maca tomorrow, though.

I mean Marku really shifted tickets… Isn’t he in the nick now? Albanians definitely really back their own though

Is Marku in the UK prison system or Greece's? Either way he'll be out in a few months, won't he?

I’m not sure. The articles online are a bit inconclusive and contradictiry. The whole affair is a bit odd..

maca is very entertaining, goes hard at the opponent all bout and throws lots of big shots. euro gold + world silver so well proven beyond uk, albeit not as a senior

Did a Google, seems on odd one, jailed for 7 years in Greece in 2010

They let him out after 18 months.

Now they want him back

Doesn't say why? Perhaps some parole violation? Was let out too early by mistake?

It seems he did the 18 months in Germany…. That’s why it’s all so weird. Is he in remand in UK awaiting extradition? It’s not clear

Leo's Matchroom deal is official. I'm told it's a very good one.

Any idea on promoters for them Mick?
I know Leo has spoken to everyone....
Atang should sign with Hearn IMO. FW is laden with heavyweight talent, you cannot serve them all. Hearn doesn't have any decent heavyweights, so Atang would get his full attention.
Confirmed Matchroom as per Mick (above). Good decision from Attang and Matchroom. Hope he has a good career.

Enjoy the journey Mick.

It’s great to closely follow an amateur and see them turn pro.

I’m looking forward to his debut.
