‼️ Brian 'BoMac' McIntyre has reportedly now been CHARGED with two firearm offences and remanded in custody for pre-trial plea hearing on Oct 9th. He was arrested as gun allegedly found as he tried to fly home after Chris Eubank Jr beat Liam Smith. [According to

I heard about this earlier today.

It should be interesting to see such an act of stupidity is handled. I suspect he'll be given a fine and manage to avoid actual jail time.

Eubank has not even been a world champion yet. Is this where Sky sports boxing is at where domestic past there sell by dates old men fighting each other for PPV and made up rivalry?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Candidly, Jr just wants the money fights and Benn does provide that.

I'd watch Jr vs Benn, as both guys are still young and their styles mesh well. At the very least, it would be an entertaining fight.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Had we not had all the controversy around the fight I suspect it would have been a good dust-up. Now though it's mutated into something that barely resembles a boxing contest and very little of the attention is going to be about the boxing itself. Great for the casual who likes all the soap opera and drama but as someone who is mainly interested in the fights themselves I'd rather not watch this circus anymore tbh.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I disagree.

Jr vs Benn is a great fight in terms of styles.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not sure you've read my comment properly. I pretty much said that in the first sentence. Would have been a good dust-up before all this other crap changed the whole complexion of the event and turned it into a circus.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The controversy has 0 effect on the clash of styles.

You've said you're not interested in the circus of the fight and instead are focused on the fight itself. So surely you would just ignore all the outside noise and watch the fight on fight night?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
its the sole reason the fight 100% goes ahead and was always the plan.... far too much money to made of it.

It will do huge numbers and both will get millions. both prob get career high paydays

Outside of a Canelo fight, Jr isn't getting a bigger pay day than the Benn fight. I actually think the way the first fight was cancelled, will make the fight even bigger. Jr will have a bag load of ammunition and he won't hold back.

without doubt, not even GGG gives him the Benn money. they will do at least a double header.

Guess the argument will be if they accidentally let him bring it in

Probably is he’s not a licensed gun holder in the states

That's the avenue I see them taking.

His team will argue that it was a mistake made by the US customs officials and Bo Mac wasn't aware of having broken any laws.

The world titles at 160 have all been scattered since GGG stepped away. If Jr wanted to win a world title, this would be an opportune time. Unfortunately, he's now only looking for the big money fights and fighting Janibek or even Lara, doesn't offer much.

Where was that pen then Chris?? 7 years it took you to find it. curious as to where he found it.

A fight with Eubank and Benn could only go one way in the promotion of the fight.

The circumstances around the fight make it horrible, however the "drama" and they back story is the reason people want them to fight not their in the ring ability. Neither are world level IMO.

I cant wait for the build up, I hope Eubank goes in hard on the PED issue, the last thing I want is this issue becoming chip shop wrapper stuff and the casual forgets about.

Make it as public and obvious as it can be the he is a convicted cheat and he believes he is still on the gear.

put the foot on his neck and squeeze.

In fairness I don't begrudge Jr ducking Golovkin because absolutely everyone else was ducking him as well in that era. And Golovkin would have killed him. I just hate how he claims he's always been looking for that fight.

I'm not against Jr ducking him but he was posturing like he was the next big thing at the time. If you can't back the talk up, perhaps it's best not to talk at all. That's one of the reasons I've never really been a fan of Jr until recently.

If he's been more humble and less arrogant he'd have had a bigger fanbase and maybe not ended up with egg on his face like he has done at times in his career.

He's basically retired. This is just a huge payday for him that he knows he doesn't have to work for against a total novice boxer who won't lay a glove on him all night.
