Its nuts, although I have also been guilty of it

You see young lads and girls walking down the street, not talking but looking on their phones - they are probably texting each other!

Given his penchant for legal action, it was the smart move.
Still funny, don't know of another example even outside of boxing

Apparently it sold out fast and he is applying for more seating.
I don't think it will lose money.
I mean, isn't Tommy Fury on the card too?

He’ll start off by not paying Dillian.

Given Frank’s love of getting the lawyers involved, threatening the Boxrec forum, paying fighters late and sometimes not paying fighters at all it always surprises me when people support him on here.
