[SlimDavy]

What's your opinion?

[Maccavelli]

They are all in it for the love of the sport, the benefit of fighters and the viewing audiences they are all sterling gents.

[UKVenom]

[TheReem]

The promoter of that event with the wooden cage covered with chicken wire in the disused warehouse on the deserted industrial estate and the undisclosed location that a few of us ended up fighting on. (that we can't talk about) I wasn't impressed with his set up.

Fuckin Malone!

What was the main event like?

I inadvertently helped to put on a show in Bethnal Green about 4 years ago and the main promoter did an awful job, he put on some good fights (accidentally) but it was a 'first and last' type of show - Didn't realise the work involved and that if you don't market the event people won't buy tickets.

Anyway, he fainted out right before the event was due to take place (right in front of all the fighters) then woke up after having pissed himself. Even though he was a complete tool his next actions surprised me.

He looked over at one, big, bad-ass looking dude (LHW from France, name escapes me), who'd watched it all and does the following :

(stamps back of foot gently into a puddle of urine twice)
''Look at that, I've only gone and wet me self''

That was quote a shocking performance. Event-wise it was quite a good night though

Well there was a heated discussion whether it was with or without gloves. Apparently 4oz gloves are gay.

Was there - I was cornering Ash Grimshaw and his infamous 'nut shot' against his Brazilian opponent. Nut shots were quite prominent that night as one of the Elite boys (read: DoD fighter) cracked his opponent in the bollocks and won via TKO.

Yeah the event as a joke. I was supposed to fight, then opponent pulled, then I somehow managed to salvage an event after the guy had basically fucked everything up - I was keen to not be seen to be at all responsible though ;-)

The fight with Grimshaw and Macio Santos (Capoeira guy right?) was pretty decent though.

Russell Baillie was a pretty epic promoter.
