@UnitedRo4d @SkyNews Money!!

@mrsamjones88 It’s maybe the only sport where a novice can compete against a world rated opponent and the most dangerous. In terms of the novice can not only get beat easily but could be permanently damaged or killed!! Money talks sadly

@kurt_dunne @stivbuchanan @davidcoldwell They wouldn’t allow someone to drive a formula one car if they were seriously dehydrated or in their 50s boxing is one of the few sports they allow amateurs to fight elite boxers and think that’s okay

[Jeff Burns @reddevil190661]

@kurt_dunne @stivbuchanan @davidcoldwell That’s your opinion and you’re entitled to it. I think it’s the board of controls job is to protect fighters and the integrity reputation and safety of the sport. If you’re son wanted to do something dangerous I’m sure you’d try to stop him because you love him

[Jeff Burns @reddevil190661]

@kurt_dunne @stivbuchanan @davidcoldwell Yes I would have stopped Foreman fighting in his 50s!! Boxing is a young man’s game. Foreman took a lot of punishment in that fight you can’t shake off at that age

[Jeff Burns @reddevil190661]

@kurt_dunne @stivbuchanan @davidcoldwell Which is exactly why it needs to be taken out of the fighters hands they don’t have the intelligence to make that kind of decision and the promoters are too greedy to give a shit. If you saw the first fight you know it’s not safe too late when a boxer is dead or damaged

@AdamCatterall @talkSPORT Fighters take risks and will fight anyone. It’s the job of the governing bodies to protect the boxers and in this case the BBBoC should stop it from going ahead end of
