I went last night and although the upper tiers weren't open all the seats that originally went on sale were sold. The £58 seats were incredibly close to the ring so I didn't think the price was that bad for being so close to the action at a televised boxing event and their were a lot of fights on the card. Hopefully Harlem will start to make the Brighton Centre his home and we can have a few more of these types of events on our doorstep.

I enjoyed that, good to see boxing back on terrestrial TV (so I can watch it!), thought the crowd were a bit flat.

Big fan of Uncle Chris back in the day. Who promoted him to Sheriff?
He will have promoted himself....Chris, very much a love him or hate him figure. Great Boxer and very much the showman. His Motor Bikes ,Fire engine, Red Hunting Jacket with jodpurs and his monocle.

I seem to remember that he was legitimately made a sheriff by a state police department in the US!

He was never a sheriff, but did serve as a marshall in the state of Louisiana though. Apparently the sheriff badge represents his pledge to protect and serve his son in training and in the ring.

Chris Eubank, 56, is a certified law enforcement marshall and got his sheriff badge working with the members of law enforcement in Opelousas, Louisiana. Chris was never a sheriff; however, he did serve as a United States marshall in Lousiana.
