To be fair he did a lot for the sport and put on some pretty decent cards and generally sorted a lot of title fights. There was a 2-3 year period where they dominated then British boxing declined and he couldn't put on the same cards anymore.

I think he has also spun it in his own favour, I mean he is a business man so why would he not. But now he has signed his top fighters ver to Saudi his interest in British hosted events is on the wane IMO. I could not even tell you which prospects he has in the British scene now if any, I think in that respect you will see less and less UK shows now because of all this news

Lucky if a new boxer (or any boxer for that matter) fights more than 5 times a year now.

I think Father Tome has caught up with her, shame as I think Price is a clown shoe.

Jonas can retire with her head held high, done a lot for boxing in this country, and is rightly known as Miss GB.
