Never heard of him but apparently F.W signed him, 13 months for changing that girls life forever, what a joke.

What a f.ucking terrible thing to do. Poor woman

I know him and hadn’t heard anything about this until it hit the paper. He was training a couple of weeks ago. He must have kept it quiet. I’m not asking, it will be a very touchy subject.... very quiet young guy every time I’ve been in his company.

Its sad and shameful. Boxing is all about controlled channeled aggression. This man should sadly not be allowed to box professionally again.

Trained by henry Wharton wasn't he

What an absolute cnt hitting a lass. Scum.

Yes, he’ll be fuming. I’m surprised The Press kept his name out of it, they ran a few articles when he turned over.

I thought that too, didn't see anything of it myself until this post on here

Many boxers careers been ruined in the pub in some shape or form.

Only a lad really. We used to call it 'the unthinking moment'. Many a fundamentally good lad has been caught out with a bit of ale inside them and wall of noise and provocation coming at them. The punishment is deserved but I'd give him a chance when he's done his time. Only one chance, though.

He was 20, and is a very well built young guy. Intimidating, even. God knows what he’s like around his pals but I couldn’t believe it. He never speaks! The drink again...

I don’t think Frank will roll with this. Or the board. It’s not a good look.

absolutely disgusted. hope he is never licenced again.

BIBA to the rescue for this man, if he wants to box on- awful behaviour by the way

He’s lucky he only got a year.

He’s a little bit too sharp for those lads.

Yes, he did well.

It says that the woman "pushed him a few times"............

That's provocative behaviour. Maybe there was more than a shove?? Maybe a scratch? A face claw?

Always some bird causing trouble

I got the impression she was hard work, especially with her brother obviously chinned downstairs. In Selby...

Maybe, or maybe not, but a heavyweight boxer shouldn't be punching a woman in the eye.

No of course not. My point was that it was not exactly unprovoked by the looks of it.

Half the trouble caused on nights out is down to pissed up slappers getting in people's faces.

Regardless, he shouldn't have hit her in the eye. A retalitory shove perhaps or the contents of his pint thrown in her mush would have been more appropriate

Found this. But more info on what happened. Doesn’t look good.
