Well, maybe the show still goes on.
Is that a good earner for a BIBA 6 rounder?

Re: Nigel Benn fight with Bika is off
Yeah for me it's good cos I cant sell tickets and as you prob know that's what it's all about, I've tried to get fights in the away corner for a purse but not had any joy so this was a breath of fresh air not having to try and do tickets!leejonesjnr wrote: ↑29 Oct 2019, 12:30Well, maybe the show still goes on.

Re: Nigel Benn fight with Bika is off
Not sure mate, if it's down to tickets I'll probably be off the bill as I cant sell any
Re: Nigel Benn hangs up his gloves
I was hoping to see him fight but at the same time this doesnt surprise me.....a lot of people said it wouldnt happen

I've no been told what the deals gonna be now mate
Re: Nigel Benn fight with Bika is off
Gaz, you are 3-0 under BIBA not sure who youve fought really but why not turn over with the BBBoC? Any particular reason you go with BIBA rather than the BBBoC?gazwilson45 wrote: ↑29 Oct 2019, 13:03Not sure mate, if it's down to tickets I'll probably be off the bill as I cant sell any
Re: Nigel Benn fight with Bika is off

Re: Nigel Benn fight with Bika is off
I signed with Kieran Farrell a few yrs ago and went in front of the scottish area board to get my licence bit they declined because I was 34 at the time and hadn't boxed amateur for maybe 5 yrs, they didn't seem happy I was with an english manager too. Got the feeling if they thought I was gonna sell loads of tickets I'd have got it. I was wanting to be an away fighter.MasterG wrote: ↑29 Oct 2019, 14:26Gaz, you are 3-0 under BIBA not sure who youve fought really but why not turn over with the BBBoC?

Re: Nigel Benn fight with Bika is off
Alot of people knock BIBA but tbh they have given me a platform to box on and I'm thankfull for that, 2 out of my 3 fights have been against guys who either had bbbofc licences or boxed on bbbofc shows and I stopped both so I know where I stand now.MasterG wrote: ↑29 Oct 2019, 14:32fair enough.gazwilson45 wrote: ↑29 Oct 2019, 14:30

Re: Nigel Benn fight with Bika is off
Not sure Lee Murtagh has any BIBA lads now think he does more Reffing & sticks to promoting the unlicensed stuff .
Re: Nigel Benn fight with Bika is off
Lee doesnt have any amateurs either, ive seen a few boxers training in his gym but not sure if he managers any BIBA boxers.Floyd the snake wrote: ↑29 Oct 2019, 14:47 Not sure Lee Murtagh has any BIBA lads now think he does more Reffing & sticks to promoting the unlicensed stuff .
Re: Nigel Benn fight with Bika is off
I gave BIBA a chance until they let Lee Mc fight Danny Williams. That fight left a sour taste in my mouth to be honest. But im not a boxer so if they are doing good by you then fair do's.gazwilson45 wrote: ↑29 Oct 2019, 14:35Alot of people knock BIBA but tbh they have given me a platform to box on and I'm thankfull for that, 2 out of my 3 fights have been against guys who either had bbbofc licences or boxed on bbbofc shows and I stopped both so I know where I stand now.

It sure is good money in today's climate. Especially if you don't sell a ticketleejonesjnr wrote: ↑29 Oct 2019, 12:30Well, maybe the show still goes on.

A few funnies on twitter about this. Like how are they going to deal with reimbusing the 7 people that bought tickets etc.. May not be true but funny nonetheless..

I do wonder whether the death of Patrick day the other day was a bit of a factor. Maybe his family talked him out of it.

Perhaps. One would imagine that Gerald McClellan would be motivation enough to enjoy retirementjamesmcdonnell wrote: ↑29 Oct 2019, 16:54I do wonder whether the death of Patrick day the other day was a bit of a factor. Maybe his family talked him out of it.
