      Not sure how many fights in the modern era have drawn on this kind of arrangement, but it's very much a part of the history of the sport. Traditionally the fighters financial backers would put up a stake and the winner would take all. A collection for the loser would be taken up amongst the 'Fancy' after the contest as a consolation.

      I like the idea in principle but in this instance it seems more of a cynical ploy to get the fight noticed however momentarily.

        Roy's not young anymore but surprisingly looks good from what these pictures portray. Still wish he would cut the BS and just do commentating full time.
