Why would they want the hassle? It sounds like far too much hard work.
You pay the big bucks for the unifying bouts, so that one fighter holds all four world titles. His or her next fight is for the unified Saudi world super title.
The guys who should be worrying here are the WBA, WBC, IBF...
Sure he is there for now, but so many of his fighters have been beaten of late, who is he going to promote?
Jai Opetaia is world class, Buatsi is useful. Who am I missing?
For all the world it looked like Warren was sitting very comfortably at the top table on Saturday, watching Bivol take...
The Whittaker ankle injury doesn't look like much with no visible swelling or bruising and some light strapping on his ankle. Plus he was able to get into an altercation at the airport. He has a lot to prove in a rematch.
Conor Benn is gambling on earning a lot of money, based off his old man's...
Whilst the debate on the scoring for the main bout, may be a bone of contention for years. I thought I would take a look and see if anything further was said about the Ben Whittaker "injury". I have looked and have yet to find anything meaningful.
There are a few loons on twitter claiming he...
Ooh now that is a lovely piece of double speak isn't it.
Private motorists who previously owned a fossil fuelled vehicle are returning to buy another fossil fueled vehicle - seems plausible.
Private motorists having tried an EV are now returning to fossil fuelled vehicles - I would be pretty...
Yes for sentimental reasons.
I was given one as a small child and tucked it under the stair carpet for safe keeping. I think I would have been two and it is one of my earliest memories. As a teenager I used to swap out the silver florins and shillings for their modern decimal equivalents, when...
Seems like pretty poor planning to me. He could have had his brother locked in a tower and assissinated. Plenty of historical precedent.
Despite being a republican I am a something of a numismatist, so not entirely uninterested in royal history.
Please help educate an old cynic.

1 What does royal patronage bring ?
2 How far does it extend - in my ignorance, I had no idea who is the Duke of Gloucester and if you had asked me who Prince Richard...
Ok
I caught some of the Villa Man U game on the concourse and thought both teams looked poor after playing in Europe in midweek. I was then really surprised by the quality of the Spurs apporach in the first half, their press was far more active and cohesive than ours. The momentum swung and yes...
I had to carefully choreograph which old thread to bounce for this one. This one works just about.
Well look who we have here fessing up to his past football misdemenours.

I have some empathy with those venting at half time. I think what the second half proved is that the players also have to take some responsibility for their performances.
Glass half empty. Chelsea could have scored a lot more. We were overrun and out worked in the first half by a Spurs side who...
When going forward FK gives me the Caldy vibes. All swashbuckling runs and deft touches. Defensively he is more like Guy Butters pre-Mark Mghee. His recovery runs could be interupted for a fag break and he is nowhere near strong enough in a 50/50. It was the same at Chelsea, lost a 50/50 to...
Come on when the score goes over 5 the teleprinter has to write it out in full so there is no ambiguity.
Brighton and Hove Albion 10 (ten) Crystal Palace 0
When I graduated many moons ago, I took a job in Gloucester and as I needed the money I started work pretty much straight away. I rented a room in a house, having done the sharing thing before, but this one didn't really work out (born again Christian landlady who I had zero in common with). I...
