Hammered home
LET it never be said that Josh Warrington trades in hyperbole where it’s not needed.
As fight week for his match with Leigh Wood started to grow older, the pair of them both went through the motions at Wednesday’s open workout.
It is well known that fight week is not the best place to get good quotes from fighters, as they are often sick of talking and struggling at the weight.
Ex-boxer turned pundit Darren Barker and journalist Ali Drew, who were presenting Matchroom’s live broadcast from the workout, found out the hard way as they probed Warrington for some quotes that might get the juices flowing.
“I’d rather be sat at home watching with my feet up, to be honest,” Warrington said when asked about attending the workout.
