Many of those asking questions are unfamiliar to reporters on the boxing beat. It seems that some press passes were given to some influencers and fans with YouTube channels with a tiny reach.
Anthony Fitzpatrick stands out in the world of professional boxing. In a world of loudmouths, he is as quiet as a Trappist monk.
Two years ago, the High Court approved a bid to sell a mansion in Saggart that was owned by Kinahan and had been seized by the Criminal Assets Bureau. It was revealed that Fitzpatrick had lived rent free in the mansion for a number of years.He has been at ringside for various big boxing nights in the UK over the past couple of years, and was also in Abu Dhabi for Chantelle Cameron's defeat of Jessica McCaskill on November 5, 2022.
They were asked if they'd ever negotiated with Fitzpatrick, and whether they had an issue with any of their fighters working with him, given his past association with Kinahan. There was no response to the queries from either Matchroom or Queensberry. There are video clips of the post-fight press conference online.
"But the Wembley version seemed even more brazen than the ones in Saudi. It became like an Expo for Saudi in the heart of London. Huge Saudi billboards, the taking over of Trafalgar Square, Saudi branding all over iconic London landmarks like the Guildhall and Leicester Square. I found it grotesque, in all honesty."
It says it all about the lack of proper governance in boxing that it was the FA - a football body - that made the most decisive intervention.
