Journalists should always be free to do their job, free from any threat or harassment.
I have never threatened a reporter or journalist or asked anyone to do that for me.
Yeah, I think there were two moments from a boxing point of view that were really important.
It was Tyson Fury's Instagram post and the other was the BBC Panorama investigation.
Even though to a lot of us that would watch that, we knew a lot of the story, we were familiar with it, but it got to an audience who didn't know this stuff.
Up to then, even though the cartel had tentacles all over the world, like at the 2016 Olympics,
I interviewed a boxer in an apartment, an Irish boxer in an apartment, and that apartment was owned by Daniel Kinnan.
The Kinnans owned property and were involved in businesses everywhere.
But I think the Panorama investigation and Tyson Fury's Instagram post, suddenly people in Britain and elsewhere sat up and took notice, very importantly in the US.
You had people like, I remember at the time, Gary Lineker tweeted about, this is great news, you know,
around Tyson saying that he was going to fight Joshua.
And he got a lot of replies from here, you know, Google Daniel Kinahan.
And in fairness, he did.
And he came back to me and said, I didn't know anything with this guy.
This is amazing stuff.
So it's an interesting one.
I like Nicola.
I've taken a fair few calls the last few days.
But a lot of people...
outside of Ireland covering this in terms of the fallout for boxing.
