Looks like a David Haye tactic to me

Absolute Class

On Haye's wall an' all. Hilarious vid. Loving the social networking build up to this fight. Seen some groves v degale channels on youtube.

Brilliant!

Are Hayemaker the only promoter in this country to make worthwhile use of various social media outlets? Haye is always quite prominent on Twitter and his facebook page is constantly updated. Compare with the likes of Britains Greatest Promoter of the Past 30 Years, who doesn't seem to have any online presence other than his own website and weekly facebook links to said website.

Surely promoting in the 2011 is about more than a press conference, flyers to your mailing list and build up in your saturday newspaper column? A sport that lives and dies by its spectator interest is pretty rubbish at utilising the 'free' means of connecting with potential punters.

Isn't that because everybody else involved in boxing is at the free bus pass age? I'd be surprised if 90% of the people that supposedly 'run' this sport even own computers.

Boxing is the only sport in the world where advanced years and incompetence are seen as worthwhile traits of an owner.

Brilliant. Makes degale look like a clown. He is actually a bit thick isn't he.

Hatton Promotion does a fair amount on Youtube - their page is a must follow for a boxing fan.

Maloney used to do a lot of podcasts etc, not so much recently.

Surprised they didn't include the 'I forgot was I was going to say' gem on Ringside.

They did.

I'll get my coat. And head off for a hearing test.

The buture's fright, the buture's chunky

Brilliant, it's now my location!

Only 3 thousand or so people have seen this not really got out there has it

Groves supporters should get T-Shirts printed with 'The Buture's Fright'. Or 'The Buture's Fright, the Buture's Orange'.

I didn't realise quite how bad he did talk before that video. Call me an old stick in the mud, but not 100% sure I like it.... sure its funny, but there are so many boxers out there with cognitive and speech issues after being punched in the head - not sure joking about cognitive impairment (even if it is in Degale's case - not boxing related) is that appropriate or tasteful.

We can laugh at this one, but could we laugh if someone edited clips of Ali from 1978-1981 joining up the clips of the slurring and the ummming.

Rob Reid's "Do you know what I mean" always made me chuckle.

As a fighter i fully agree Stu. If it was a general piss take of a fighter i would be most Dis-Pleased.

But its Degale and he has truly left himself open to this with his attitude, comments and demeanor!

Very true, Maxwell.

Quality son

There is no truth in the rumour that Coldwell secretly filmed some of the footage with a hidden camera pointing out of Adam Booth's backside.

I always found Robin Reid's 'DYKWIM?' strangely camp.

Could've opened up a whole new film career for him.
