Laurence Bassini challenges Simon Jordan to a fight after talkSPORT rant

TalkSPORT presenter Simon Jordan has disclosed an expletive-laden text message allegedly sent by prospective Birmingham City owner Laurence Bassini stating that he wants to fight the former Crystal Palace chief for £1million for charity.

Bassini's proposal comes after the pair were involved in a heated exchange on TalkSPORT on Friday morning.

It seems that Bassini was not finished with Jordan once the show was done, as he is claimed to have sent another message via text afterwards.
