I'm gonna try and cadge some tickets off him for Wimbledon next year to watch him play. My friend Matthew Parris believes that this is explained by guilt over the defenestration of Margaret Thatcher. Topping the bill at the weekend will be Scott Harrison's world title fight against Nedal Hussein. Who do you take to win that one? I'm certain that Scott is gonna beat Nedal.
He had a good win the other day against Tim, didn't he? I haven't had time to speak to him, but I'm sure I'll catch up with him after the fight. Andy Murray is a big boxing fan and will be ringside on Saturday, apparently. Have you traded tales about being teenage sports stars? And do you follow tennis much? I'm looking forward to meeting Andy. Clever idea, eh! I was absolutely starving that day and I was sat there with everyone eating, journalists tucking in, and me having nothing. I could see all this delicious food, I could smell it coming out the kitchen, but I couldn't touch it. They even made me go into the kitchen to pose for photographs of me supposedly cooking a curry. Torture, man! I think the same PR people are going to be in Glasgow and they said they'll sort me a big feed They better...
Ramadan is very important to me, there's no question I wouldn't fast. I hope I've shown it's no hindrance to being involved in top-level sport. You were in Brick Lane recently to publicise your fourth professional fight, at the ExCel Centre in London on 10 December. But the launch was during Ramadan so you couldn't eat even though the event was in a curry house. Whose bright idea was that!? And with Ramadan ending on Thursday, do you know a decent place to eat in Glasgow on Saturday? I think it was Frank Warren's PR people.
