Steve Bunce on tour - Errol to attend London event

Steve Bunce is on the road as part of his Buncelive roadshow.  We hear early events have gone down well and it goes to show that in spite of Setanta folding, there's still a big fan base for Buncie out there.  So why isn't he on the telly?  The BBC have given him a radio slot in London.  C'mon people - get the Buncoid back on the airwaves.  When he's in London on Tuesday, 29th September - Errol Christie will be in attendance.  Bunce has written the introduction to Errol's biography which is being published in March, 2010.  Should be an interesting evening.

Kaylor and Christie to talk about their big fight???

It may just be a rumor but we hear on the boxing grapevine that Mark Kaylor and Errol Christie may feature in some kind of video - possibly on YouTube - to talk about their big grudge match in 1985.  For those of you who remember, and those who don't, this was a Guy Fawkes Night bout where the fireworks were literally going off outside the ring and metaphorically going off inside the ring.  The two guys laid in to each other like two wild animals sending each other down.  It was a time of great racial tension in Britain and Kaylor's victory was felt badly by the black community at the time.  Let's hope the two men can talk about it now.

Errol Christie movie has £1.5m backer

We hear on the grapevine that a movie based on the life of Errol Christie and Neville Staple has a £1.5m backer.  Does anybody know more?   One of Errol's boxing students is Hollywood mogul Arnon Milchan - producer of most of Brad Pitt's movies - is he the mystery backer?  Errol's book is still slated for publication in March 2010.  Will this coincide with the movie release?  He's been working with ex-BBC producer Tony McMahon on the book and movie.   All gossip gratefully received.
