    Exactly. And then when he slaps an opponent at a weigh-in, spits at his opponent's brother 5 minutes before a fight or scraps in his post-fight press conference, people say "look at what has become of British boxing". Well they can **** off.

    Ignoring the 'British' bit, I'd say the 'always' bit depends on when you start from and what you consider a 'match'.

    Nigel Benn complained at the standard of opponent he was being fed because he reckoned he was "bored of knocking out Mexican roadsweepers" Compare that to the hype of Harrison and Khan and the mitten wearers put before them and the contrast in 'matchmaking' is self evident. One defeat now is almost career ending. How is someone supposed to learn and develop?

    I wouldn't disagree about the poor state of boxing but it's a problem in the sport, not this nation and is created by the fear of managers and promoters that their boy might lose as well as the short attention span of our X-factor society.


    Haye was there last night because he felt Klitchco wasn't getting the full story from his manager. Haye reckons the two fighters had it all agreed, but the manager was stalling so he wanted to talk when all parties could hear what was being said. He'd said all this earlier.

    Just heard that German police arrested Chisoro at the airport and also want to arrest Haye, but he's gone missing.

    To call this ridiculous doesn't do it justice.
