    Well done to Dave for being so honest about the issues (gambling) that have affected his life. Hopefully now someone in his life will give him the help he needs to overcome these issues, if not he will end up depressed with no money again.

  • @KingWelshy
    @KingWelshy 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    He just kept it real. Good luck to him. Johnny Nelson always said he didn't have natural talent but the training and teaching he got from his trainers made him a world champ, so Dave just gotta buckle down and see how far he can go but put his best foot forward. Got heart so that's a start.

    Daves life was almost a carbon copy of Tyson fury’s, when he lost it.
    The weight gain, the depression, the addiction, yet nobody knows about it.2 and a half years after this video was made and this is the first i knew he was fighting all these demons.
    Big respect to him sorting himself out.
    Boy deserves a good life.i hope he gets it.

    gambling addiction truly sucks. iv been hooked for years. The longest I abstained was 1 year but like many I have relapsed. I'm slowly breaking free though. never had addictions like smoke, drink or drugs. I did them but was never gripped but gambling is a whole different animal. Worst thing that can happen to you is you get a big win

    I work with people suffering from drug and alcohol addiction, and whether it's substances, gambling, or eating too many fucking cream cakes (guilty!), the psychology is the same. My message to Dave Allen would be seek peer support (Gamblers Anonymous, SMART Recovery, etc.), and just take one day at a time. Oh, and win that fight, mate.
    All the best. x

    This guy cracks me up. I've heard his name before because I like boxing, but I've never seen his face before, or heard him talk. I'm rooting like mad for him now though. Come on son!

    Great bloke, Dave Allen! Had the pleasure of speaking to him on the phone on a number of occasions and he is refreshingly honest and incredibly funny. He truly deserves this platform and I hope he goes home with the Commonwealth title on Saturday night.

    Watched the whole video now. Massive respect to you Dave for admitting gambling problem and depression. I've got previous experience with addiction (well, still current really because it never goes away) and also currently on medication for depression so i can relate to you!
    I hope you read these comments. There's nothing but good words about you. I know you're an IFL fan, but i don't know if you watch the video of yourself. Would love to go for a pint with you! lol. Well, a pint of coke i guess as you said that you don't drink! lol.
    Good luck for Saturday. You can do it!

    • @fredinatub
      @fredinatub 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ive seen a few comments on here from people saying "why give this guy a 30minute interview he is a shit boxer" lol and things like this guy is a bum he should quit boxing. I dont get people like that and as for the guy who said they should only give 30minute interviews to the world champions what a total idiot he must not be able to relate to people as he would rather listen to a boring boxer talk shit than a guy who is been open and honest. I wish more sportsmen and women opened up like this as it would help others who are going through the same thing.

    What a genuinely nice fella! Really hope Dave goes from strength to strength, wins the Commonwealth and is able to get the British and European eventually. A shot at the World might be a step too far but anything is possible if he applies himself and gets good learning fights.
