its difficult to determine your angle on this one pete? are you an industry critic, whose main aim is to look for the cracks in veneer of a show or to compare cynically.

or indeed are you a sponsor just waiting to put your money into a promotion worth your time and effort?

you post without identity so i really cannot make that call but would ask you to at least appreciate that the best laid plans can falter at the eleventh hour. As did master skens. he had hoped to host the kings birthday celebrations here in uk. transport was arranged for thai dignataries travelling/attending the show (who actually may still be coming). title fights were arranged, air tickets purchased all waiting for the transfer of funds from thailand.

Frankly; they did not materialise. someone lied.

through hard work and the goodwill of the existing sponsors and a change to the fight order the show will go ahead as scheduled.

try to appreciate the effort and rejoice in a success.
