I went to one on Friday night at M'boro it was ok very little talent, ok there was no talent but the fights were entertaining! The ring was really small around 15ft at a guess.

Anyone else been to an event and what did you think?

Been to a few opver the years and must say I am against them.

Boxing is dangerous enopugh without a bunch of yokels throwing cards half assed tryingnot to pay a fee, you don't know iof the fighters are drug users, no hiv test, steroid testing.

A felony IMO

I keep getting told I should get into them... their standards are usually very poor because no real trainer would put somebody into the ring in that standard.

Decent way to make a bit of spare change but I don't think it's at all safe, so no.

Its a way to make money but boxing is'nt the safest thing to be in when its licenced with all the check fighters go through and people do suffer injures.If it happend at 1 of these events they would be f**ked.

Was very surprised to see Paul Ingle the former feather champion there he was the guest of honor.

Jesus, you would think that after what happened to him he would be the last person to support an unlicensed fight.

I saw lot's of them where I grew up. Town fiestas man. Everybody can join, with or without ring experience. They even have gay vs gay Lol! The event are mainly just for laughs. All fighters are serious though, cuz there's cash prize.
