Great fight. The show was the 1st ever broadcast for Boxnation if I recall correctly? So fortunate to train with Paul back in the day, he was brilliant to work with. And our rounds helped me so much. Loved watching him box amateur and pro. All action. All heart.

Gone but never forgotten. A legend in Scottish boxing, Willie had time for everyone. A joy to train alongside, to watch him in the ring or hitting the bag, I was watching a craftsman at his work. Respect

Chris Eubank Jr says the £100,000 fine by BBBofC is “worth every penny” after slapping Conor Benn with an egg.

I don't think Eubank Jr regrets having to shell out £100k 🥚 #eubankbenn

Just egging them on now. Tactical. Similar to the first ever Eubank snr v Nigel Benn contest. Eubank winding up team Benn to get an emotional response.

Glad you like it Alex! "I cannot predict. I'm not clairvoyant!" I mean, will the fight go the full dozen or will it be over-easy? 🍳

I am also so much looking forward to returning to Scotland with the nation’s biggest star and our latest signing, @JoshTaylorBoxer, headlining and rebooting his career at welterweight! But, he will be up against it with Ekow Essuman in the opposite corner!
