No. Can't remember who the bloke in the front row is, either the lawyer or one of W arrens partners.

I always notice him, at least he watches the contest.

Does it not piss you off at the number of people in the VIP area who are too busy talking or texting to watch the fight. Real fans would give their eye teeth for these seats.

No he is not. He definitely has something to do with the Sportsnetwork set up or one of W arren's other companies.

I can assure you it is not. Boxing chat was nowhere near the front row. W arren's secretary sat next to him during the Maccarinelli fight and some of W arren's other staff like Dean Powell and Dennis were in the second, alas boxing chat was nowhere to be seen.

Definately, I used to get so mad when Andrew Murray got ringside as he had no interst in boxing what-so-ever and when the camera closed in on the action more often then not he was looking elsewhere.

Also the people at ringside dressed in t-shirts and jumpers, for gods sake you have the best seats in the house, dress up!

Think you have the wrong man, he was sat on the other side of Warren's secretary, next to the Khan clan.

His name is Ed Symons

He used to be a partner of Harvey Goldsmith

He is a director of Sports Network, he might work w ith Mr Warren

He may have a share in Roman Greenberg, I think?? Or may not?

I dont think the blame Roman's frankly disappointing career thus far can be wholly attributed to his management team.

The fighters poor conditioning and lack of drive and fighter's instinct are things Roman himself should be able to resolve.

Oh come on. They havent got the kid a meningful fight since he turned pro.

They scratch around for fights and he hardly fights now.

They kid has got worse. He is slow to the extent of being ponderous.

What a waste.

I am not saying he has been well managed, far from it.

What I am saying is that he never had it in the first place. He isnt a REAL fighter in my eyes. He doesnt seem to have the requisit hunger/desire.

I dont think he ever did.

Was that Khan's dad in the front row?
He seems to really follow the fights, didn't see Amir there though.
I rememeber in the Kastidis v Earl fight , Khan's Dad and Mum were shouting advice at Earl.
