"It is extremely devastating and sad to hear the news of Neville Knight's death whilst involved in a corporate bout
hosted by Nabby's boxing gym on Saturday evening.
Our immediate thoughts are for Neville's family and friends in this time of tragedy.
The circumstances of this tragic event are not immediately clear, so we await the findings of an investigation before
commenting further as anything else would be speculation."
