I admire many sportsmen past and present but
@usykaa
has just gone to the top of my list . To go back to Ukraine to help defend the Russian attack when in the position he is in is monumental, what a guy . Hope all ends well for Ukraine and him
Absolutely made up that we get to see
@Scottfitz91
back in the ring after all his outside issues . Hopefully all behind him now and he goes on to make the career we all want to see, thanks to
@EddieHearn
for his support , could easily have left him behind .

Been planning an exit strategy from Boxing a while now but already working on events for next year at Wigan,Salford,Liverpool,Wirral , Knowsley,Leeds,Hull,Bolton,Blackpool,Doncaster and Southport . The urge to not let people down seems to over power common sense 🤔🤔
Morning World , cannot wait until this time tomorrow when wake up as manager of 2 world champions including a 2 weight world champion in
@terryflanagan5
, Think it be a good feeling!
You cannot beat a win in the away corner , especially when opponent has a lot to say . Well done
@JackCullen1461
, The Little Leaver Meat Cleaver # BetFred thanks 9-2
What a night last night , you cannot beat an away win and
@marc_leach
becoming British Champion in London with a close to punch perfect boxing masterclass is up there . Thanks to
@Nigel_Travis
and
@JamieMoore777
, let’s hope Salford and MUFC get behind him as lots more to come
Tonight’s
@vipboxing
show in Knowsley still goes ahead despite some let downs , not one of our better shows and a financial disaster but at least boxers get to fight before Xmas
#Hardwork
Buzzing for
@Scottfitz91

this morning as know how much last night meant to him and equally gutted for
@SeanMasher
who lives it to , hope to have night out this week with pair of them
#masherwillbeback
My heart is bleeding and only known him a few years . Little character , not sure why shot but shows the world is now a dangerous place to live with no respect for lives
#21
year old for fuck sake
A wet Saturday morning delivery of Tickets can only mean one thing , small hall Boxing is nearly back . Hopefully board and venue restrictions be over for our planned
@vipboxing
September dates which we will start announcing next week , first one is a belter !
Very few fights when right or wrong I cannot chose who I think will win , this is one of them and will be getting up to watch it. 2 top quality fighters show for free on ITV
#bonus
Morning World ...watched the Bruno v Tyson documentary on Sky last night , loved it and recommend it to any boxing fan . 90 minutes longed but seemed to last only 30 minutes which is a good sign of enjoyment
#boxing
Morning World , another lovely day to start work at the new home . Grafted every single day since lockdown including weekends and bank holidays keeping us moving with a lot on furlough

😡 “It’s nonsense! Absolute nonsense!”
🤦♂️ “The far side defender looks like he’s playing Bamford onside!”
✅ “Bamford’s was a goal, any manager would accept that was a goal.”

Great that some old
@vipboxing
events will be shown on SKY Showcase channel 192 starting on Saturday 5th Sept at 9pm for 2 hours . Some belters being worked on will be revealed soon
Do not understand why boxers not shake hands , personally think a wankers behaviour as still a sport - hopefully
@JackCullen1461
knocks some respect into him tomorrow 👊👊
#MeatCleaver
Scouse Jolly Boys done , Manc one next week is last show of year for
@vipboxing

EBU title fight and
@zelfaflash
IBF final eliminator ,reminded me why I do it as was not sure yesterday
Cannot understand a council that does not support one of its own genuine world class athletes . A chance to get revenge for
@J_Warrington
would be boosted by his home town fans and an opportunity for Leeds to hold an event the likes may never be seen again .
#Appeal
#rethink
Yarde shown a good chin , was knackered when the jab finished it . Timing was right to take on Kovalev but unfortunately all the easy fights on the way up did not give him the experience needed to do the job !
Gutted for
@terryflanagan5
loosing split decision for World title ,tough fight after 14 months out but we fancied it and no complaints except English judge scoring 117-111 for Hooker which was bad , personally I had it a draw
#will
be back
Bed time , finally managed to make the last 2 fights for tomorrow . If only people knew what goes on behind the scene , not long left for me in this job
#fucked
Just watched the fight on Sky catch up and scored 117-113 for
@Scottfitz91
, early rounds close but give most to Scott as Cheeseman was not hitting him . Only clear rounds for Ted were 6 ,7 and 8 to me , good win and plenty more to come .
People asking my thoughts on drug testing , it really is as simple to me as a fail is a fail . However I do believe that boards should sing from the same sheet and Wada/Vada should meet and agree the substances which are and are not allowed so is clear and no grey areas
#onerule
It was a pleasure to be there to watch Willie Warburton’s last fight , many of his 201 fights been on
@vipboxing
shows and I know how good he was. Wonder how many of them he could have won , at least 100 I would say
#TopPro
Last show of season this Saturday for

Noticed French guy Saidou Sall is over this weekend to box Ex British Champion Hosea Burton on a TV show but board would not sanction him to box
@LyndonArthur
on a non TV show 🤔🤔
#Howdoesthatwork
To many so called pro boxers failing to make weight these days in title fights ,kid over 3lb over in World title super-fly title fight . I know it would ruin shows and also cost fighter who has done his job right but someone has to be brave and not fight to try and stop this .
A quiet Xmas eve at VIP office planning for 2023,3 new staff joining Engineering ready for a new assault .19 events booked for
@vipboxing
