All the big boy promoters quickly distanced themselves from him. Small has never been a ticket seller. 99.5 percent of people that attend small hall british boxing shows know exactly who he is.
Imagine the hatred he would get, it could cause a riot.
Imagine a cunt brave enough to cheer for him![]()

Do you really think anyone cares? I think it's just because we all spend time on forums talking to other likeminded people, most fans won't know or give a shit.
It's like the Amir Khan knob pic story that people said would ruin him, nobody outside the forums even knows about it.
He may not fight again, because he's shit and been exposed twice already, but if he was exciting and had prospects of doing something he'd get back on a fight card no problem at all, and nobody would give a shit.
All he has done is a appear at a rally, what he posts on his facebook is of no consequence, nobody will ever hear about that outside of hardcore fan forums. If he did fight again on BBC I doubt they would even mention anything, and the crowd would largely be none the wiser.
Small is a tiny Leisure Centre fighter (unless he's on an undercard). The only people that attend those shows are hardcore Brit boxing fans and the fighters family and friends. They all know what Small has done (just check out some of the bigger forums where boxers, promoter/managers, journos etc post). Hatton Promotions/Frank Warren/Frank Maloney all instantly mugged him off.

Unless he does something really stupid this will all be forgotten in a few weeks. It's like scandals involving real celebrities. All their sponsors will drop them and distance themselves for a while, until the appropriate 'penance debt' has been paid and they are marketable again and then they will fall over themselves to resign them first.
Winona Ryder ended up running ad campaigns for the store she stole from, stars get dropped for drug use, for about a month and then signed up to a new campaign etc.
It's the farcical merry-go-round of public opinion.
Yeah he hasn't been headlining, so that's a decent enough reason as to why it won't really effect his fan base. People won't refrain from buying tickets for a good headliner purely because Small is on the undercard - not imo anyway,
Having said that, you could argue that the only promoters who have the means to put on a quality headlining act are the likes of Warren, Hatton, Maloney, Hennessey, Haymaker et al and if they've all fucked him off then i see your point.
I still can't help thinking it will all be forgotten in a few months time though.
