How did Peter make his money out of curiousity?

There'll be a way around these things if need be, there always is.
There isn't. Tyson was legally allowed, it was pressure groups trying to stop it. Nothing really. It's the other way round over there, and they don't budge for anyone.
Tyson's no longer allowed in due to a change in the law, Hopkins wouldn't be allowed to enter the country either.

He was charged with possession with intent to supply but the charge was lowered to possession, which he admitted to.

Yes, he will be allowed to get into America. He served no time and he is an Olympic champion
What a load of dog poo. Nigella was banned from the US and she didn't get done for possession. She admitted taking drugs. Also big melons is a lot bigger name is the US. Boxing is a dieing sport in the US right now and once Floyd has retired the yanks don't give a shit about the sport. Just look at how many followers Wilder has on twitter! The only reason why its gone up A LITTLE is because of shit between him and Charlie Z! More brits follow Wilder than yanks FFS! Don't get me wrong boxing is still big in the UK but sadly UFC has taken over from boxing in the states right now. Maybe if Wilder wins all the heavyweight belts it may change. I hope so

If he wins a belt, and defends it and lights up our lives and continues knocking out mother fuckers in the UK he will not need to go to the USA, he will want to, we would want him to go and smash them but he needed.

If you are the best at what you do, contribute to the economy and you bring in the benjamins to a country, you will get a working visa no problem.

fornicating Nigella, seriously, a coked up over eating distinctly average cook with with massive norks that to be honest is as exciting as watching paint dry

Do any UFC fighters get a 19m purse for one fight?

I think you'll find we're agreeing here. I don't think UFC is taking over anything either, especially not now that GSP and Anderson Silva are "done". The most bankable fighter in UFC is a woman right now, that should tell you what you need to know.

Yup, i was agreeing with you.

Every UFC fight that gets deemed a "fight of the year contender" is guaranteed to involve 2 guys trading punches, standup. Never hear of anyone creaming their pants over a 5 round roll-athon. Not denying the technical skills involved on the ground, just sayin every time i hear of a great fight in UFC it involves 2 guys on their feet knocking seven bells out one another.
