Yes, the event is a sell out.
So much so that the sales beat the printing run for the posters !!!
Reflects the high esteem Ryan holds within boxing.
Gonna be a great night.

Just has the great news that Carl Froch is joining us with his lovely partner Rachael.
If Carlsberg did top tables it would look like this

Evening will be compared by BBC Look North presenter, Christa Ackroyd.
Top table completed by Will Mellor TV Actor.
Going to be a great night.

Still formalising arrangements mate but I think there will be some Sky coverage, and BBC locally as things stand.
I'll keep you posted pal.

Hi Curt,
There is an argument with Ryan at the moment that you should be up there on the top table matey !!
Having said that you'll no doubt be with Sharky ...... !

Thanks. This is great. He is getting the send off that he deserves. Will the Hayemaker make an appearance?

Can't believe how long Rhodes boxed on for! Remember seeing him lose to blundell & thinking that he was burnt out & done!
