My gut feeling is that this fight happens and all of the stuff at the press conference is just hype.

Anyone else think the same.

If it is then it was well done and it fooled me. It was definitely posturing anyway but I doubt it was staged.

Anyway I heard that the opponent is now signed.

Any clues on the identity of this mystery person?

If you want to make a fight in belfast or I use a local BBBoC matchmaker.... ME!!!!

I pay my dues every year and get passed over for the in house guys that no one wants to speak too. As for Rogie and Henessy's FRIEND that they keep harping on about, either pay his fee's or take a step back, (no offense I like the guy).

Rogan is playing it by the book, and if i was offered 50K then 80K i'd be asking WTF!

I dont think the opening offer was £50k though.

All sounds a bit dodgy to me, Rogan's "friend", you did call me, you didn't, Rogan sat at the bar at Wembley when he was getting paid to be a reserve.

i hear what you're saying, but if I paid someone to be a reserve, I'd want them ready to step in, right up until the bell for the first round. Just say, there was a freak accident or Chisora pulled out in the changing room, what good would Rogan be if you'd paid him to stand in?

you are right mate and if i was paying rogie i'd be the same, i've heard from a pal of mine from belfast that rogie just didn't fancy the fight with fury, if that is true then why didn't he just say so :shame:

Seems a little strange that they would hold a press conference without an opponent, Martin Rogan just happens to be there and then Martin Rogan is allowed to become the main focus of the press conference. Hmmmm.

Whats strange about it?

Ever man and his dog knew where and when the presser was on.

You try and stop Rogie from saying his piece at a presser. As easy as herding butterlies in the dark.
