In a beautiful part of medway. Went very well. Sakio did a round on the gloves as we'll and brought the WBC belt with him. What a lovely looking belt it is too.

Sarcasm, eh?

Many moons ago I once lived in Gravesend (a twenty minute drive away), and would have definitely popped over to meet Sakio: one of my favorites. What was he like? I imagine he's massive when he's not making weight.

Gravesend was one of the few times I was walking about of an evening feeling rather edge. It was a weird vibe walking around there of a night.

Yeah, but you were peeping through windows, you were bound to be edgy.

He looked like a beast to be fair, in shape and a very big shoulders. Looked natural though for what it's worth, and seemed like a nice guy. He wants the winner of froch vs groves and would prefer froch for some reason.

Gravesend shouldn't hold too much fear for medwaysians. :OhYes:

The only place I have ever been in a pub where they mopped the blood from around my feet from a lad that had been stabbed in the face while they took my order at the bar. True story.

No it's my mates new gym. I'm thinking of doing the Ricky hatton pad work training courses and helping out. The fella running it is a top bloke, ex kick boxer and current pro boxer.

The bloke was there and met bika; I'd not go on the pads with him if he didn't know what county he was in.

I hope he gets a big fight with either one. I guess that's why he's in the area, to be in the house tomorrow and drum up some interest in a unification.

No formal training mate but always wanted to try it out. Even for the fitness element as much as anything.

Bika would have been an excellent spar partner for Groves to prepare for Froch i reckon, any chance that was what happened?
