Think Tel got it from Frank directly that it was nonsense, I'd trust him over Pigg

I suspect it actually is. It’s very factually correct, with Celesbanksi’s gym, etc.
It's fun to think it's true. Let it run I say, like Richard Gere and his gerbil, I prefer to believe the legend.

That is so true with many 'stories.' they are so good you just leave it alone and enjoy.

Smith v Mason on YouTube is quality. Hosea Burton appears on it. McGinley v Price (a decent amateur) in a shopping centre is good when the bullying Mcginley gets a shock when Price knows what he's doing.
Is this Price related to Ivan Price

:stop: He's supposed to be making a video for me in Race, Politics and Religion. He put out the challenge to ask him ten questions and he would film the response and post it. Nobody took him up on it but me. I hope he answers. I asked him about this thread, amongst other things. So don't be mean to him and let's see if he'll post his response. It's supposed to maybe make us change our minds on him a little bit and see that he's actually a cool guy. I'd like to see it.

While we are on the topic of John Fury lulz, gotta admit, someone on another thread made me notice, looking at young John Fury it's striking how Arab he looks

Those dark features, the black curly hair, that long sharp nose, the facial hair....maybe he's not really a true proud honourable noble gypsy fighting man. Maybe he only wanted to be, like Homi

Yeah apparently John Fury’s real name isn’t John Fury, or John Partridge it’s actually Mohammed Al Hassan Ibrahim.

But you claimed today Frank Grant told you two years ago the sparring story wasn't true.

I go to shows all the time. Sorry if my dates are wrong. Why are you so upset Frank said that?

Not been many shows since November 2019, what with the covid19 outbreak.

Stopped in a round in his only ever pro fight. Gotta hurt.

Still, he had the balls to get in there and he lost to a decent fighter

MY MY ,,, Why the hell would anyone put a guy into a profesional boxing ring , WHEN he does'nt have a clue ,,, not even sure he was ready for his first AMETEUR fight ,,,, Props to the boxer , he done it ,he shown guts having a go, especielly when lets have it right , i doubt he would off even won a spar. But some of these handlers , should be made to do it themselves ,
