Hopefully tonight I can get to the fight? After all that has been going on elsewhere in another part of the UK. A piece of common sense must prevail and society doesnt make a scuffle into some kind of act of barbaric uncivilised behaviour which wastes thousands of quid in court costs etc.. Its strange how you watch the times change. I was at a take away counter a few years ago and a prick was unhappy about not getting onions with his beef-burger, the server more or less told him he was being an awkward fool and to p*** Off. I shit you not the onion man phoned 999? In the late 1970s/80s the keystones were only called if an onion type of man was thrown through the kebab window and damaged the skewered lamb. So much looking forward to boxing if I get there? It going to be the most bizarre scenario I have ever experienced in all my fights I have been too. 1. Fifty or more of us flying from California to Maddisson Square Garden, New York with forged tickets Great until you notice each one has the same seat number 1999 it was Lennox Lewis v Evander Hollyfieder. 2.Coming out of that venue or it might of been Vegas and the promoter Barry Hearn making a B-line straight to me and asking how all my family were keeping? For 3 minutes I kept this fantastical conversation going as he seemed so concerned, who was I to tell him he had mistaken me for someone else, he even conducted a radio interview in my presence, we were that pally. I always remember him smiling and waving good-bye! 3. Being ringside and sat behind Calzaghes wife when he fought Kezzler shouting and screaming for Joe for six rounds then when the bell went the noise died down, a bit too f**king much it went completely silent and I was heard quite clearly by all around including his wife say Can I put £300 on Kelser to win please on my mobile? 4. After attending a black tie event in a The Royal Garden Chelsea Hotel and waking up in a hotel somewhere in Shooters Hill with a signed poster. I must be the only living man to bump a check of £800 to the real McCoy gangster Joey Pyle. 5. Being ejected from the Thomas Mack Centre for booing was bizarre especially after travelling all that way and listening to Calzaghe win the fight whilst sitting in a Las Vegas cab radio. 6. At York Hall,London I noticed one of the judges had a betting slip on the outcome of that shown event. I queried him and he shouted Security. 7. Sitting next to Jack Nickleson, talking with Tom Jones at an after-show and so many , many more unplanned experiences but tomorrow will be the strangest of them all. If it happens that is I promise!!!
