    I videoed the event, and edited it all as well. I just thought I would get as many people to look at it as possible. Just thought some people may be interested. If not, apologies.

    I'm not saying the quality of the fighters was particularly good, far from it.

    However, all money raised for the night (and it was a sell out) goes to charity, helping the Lancaster and Morecambe Childrens Holiday of a Lifetime Society, so it was all for a good cause.

    Morecambe isn't the most famous, and certainly not the most glamorous town in the UK, so Tony Tucker coming here was quite a big thing for the local fight fans.

    No worries mate...Just when we get someone here who in their first post puts up a link for an event what else is there to think?.....In the future you ever get anything like that and it is for charity and I stress for charity...contact me on the front page and I can do a little something to help show the good cause of the event

    Got to say Ive been to one or two as a guest, and enjoyed. They never let it get out of hand, the Refs are on the Ball and keep a firm hand. All in All they are good nights and raise money for Charity no harm done.

    Where abouts are you from mate? The next event round here is later in the year, October/November time. The exact date is not yet confirmed.

    If you can get yourself in shape then you should get involved. Was a great atmosphere last Friday night.

    I'm pleased you appreciated the thread, I was unsure about the kind of comments I would get. A lot of people look down on white collar Boxing and I was expecting a lot of negative comments to be honest.

    I'm like you, I love Boxing, whatever level, and even though the majority of the fighters are not exactly the most talented Boxers, it doesn't matter to me. As long as they give it their all. thats all thats important.
