Well I don't know if the Box Nation guy who posts here passed anything onto Steven Bunce regarding my long winded Scottish boxing post a few days ago, but I was very surprised that Buncey had Paul Weir on The Bunce Hour last night. Maybe it was just a coincidence but I couldn't believe when I tuned in last night and Steve Bunce was chatting away to Paul Weir about his career. I don't think Paul Weir has been on any boxing TV or radio show since he retired, and I don't think he's a very well known or recognised fighter.
If Box Nation who posts here did have anything to do with last nights interview, thanks very much. If not, what an amazing coincidence.

I've got a few in mind. I'm going to post their promoter too. I'm really looking for these guys to make an impact at British level, with a couple of them dipping their toes into the European scene.
Kid Galahad - Mick Hennessey
Chris Eubank Jr. - Mick Hennessey
David Price - Frank Maloney
Martin Murray - Ricky Hatton
Scott Quigg - Ricky Hatton
Liam Walsh - Frank Warren
Billy Joe Saunders - Frank Warren
Carl Frampton - Eddie Hearn?
Oh an if Enzo Maccarinelli does get a shot at Nathan Cleverly in 2012, I think Enzo can pull off the upset.
