BoxRec

Is there a website or something that could me up to date with these shows and the different people participating? I'd like to go to more but most of the time I dont even know they're on and until I read about it on here or something! Cheers.

No website mate.
Rhodes Graham Nelson and Brook in Rotherham tonight.
Calzaghe in Sheffield and Barnsley 21 and 22 February.
Groves in Rotherham 23 February.

Cheers mate. It's just that most of time I dont even know that these shows are happening until after the event/s!

What does George do at this event? Does he stand up and speak about his career? Seems a little odd given he has only had 1 big fight. I'm sure he has plenty of stories to tell but seems odd when you are starting out?

Just an interview with a q and a mate.
Sold out in no time.
Why do you find it odd ?

There are some big names that may be coming to these shores during 2014.
If I hear anything I'll post it.
Maybe others in different areas could do likewise.
Just remembered Kevin Sanders has a dinner with Ricky in February in Peterborough.

I thought it was off because if someone was standing up to talk about their career George hasn't really had much of a career unlike Calzaghe. I understand if it is a Q&A would be more interesting. Most people do after dinner speaking events when their career has finished or coming to an end right?

Christ, he ain't kidding about not getting the paydays is he?

May as well earn a few quid while your active and popular

not many people would fork out to see retired boxers unless there top guys.

Boxers are easily forgotten about once there retired and out the spotlight unless they leave a major mark on the sport

Did Haye sell out in Rotherham(tickets).

All four dates sold out including Rotherham. In fact Rotherham was the best one.

I heard Witter was meant to be on tonight's show but he got removed due to poor ticket sales...

Tish tish boom ........
How many does Henry Wharton do ?!?

Groves is supposedly also coming to Birmingham in February. He's keeping himself busy

He would definitely sell in York, probably Leeds as well, couldn't have seen him doing one but things are changing on that front.

Just heard Groves is bringing his "Zero to Hero" tour to Featherstone next month.

Good luck to him, I hope he makes some money from doing the dinners, but, how long will he be able to dine out and talk about 1 fight?

Until the rematch Spud then he will have to do the hero to zero tour !

Cheers, just wondered as I live in Wakefield and Featherstone's one of the rougher bits. Wouldn't have described it like that if you'd said you lived there

Our school rugby league team got attacked in the changing rooms after the game once. And we lost.
