Grab yourself a ticket now for a bargain of just £20 before there all gone , which i gurarantee they will .

I'm a little confused by the description of this as a white collar show - wouldn't it be more accurate to call it an unlicenced boxing event? Eg I've been to a few IBA shows, where several ex-pros were boxing. Admittedly, there were some novice-looking guys on show as well, but generally the standard was pretty high and the fellas were getting paid.

I've had a couple of white collar fights, under the IWCBA banner. I wasn't getting paid and the standard was a long way off pro level (although you do get some handy boxers at white collar level, eg lads who have had amateur careers).

Oh might be up for this. i know michelle personally and trained with mcintosh a few times

I'll be there. Been training at the same gym as alot of the lads on the list for a few weeks and it should be a good show

Mate , call it what you want as there all the same - Unlicensed / White Collar / Semi pro , theres absolutely no difference between them at all , just depends what name the promotor preferes to use , i tend to use the name semi pro other than on here as people always kick up a fuss whatever you call it , the only time i have an issue is the name unlicensed as that makes it sound shady etc , which it aint , well not when im involved anyway , if you werent getting paid then in my opinion thats a bit dodgy , you should be getting paid if your putting your ass on the line , the EBF are White collar but they are the most established outfit in the country on these types of show and they pay , whos shows do you usually box on ?

Yeah wanted to watch forest , might manage to catch second half but gotta go cos didnt go tuesday and i like to make sure dom is doing ok due to him being my cruiserweight champion , plus theres always one of the lads having a moan at me about something or other , some of them i like women , mentioning no names .

I might be making my way down to this a friends friend is fighting.

How many people do you expect to get in there? Ive never been to one of these shows before so would be interested in seeing how it compares to a pro show in regards to skill level and entertainment factor.
