Ex-world boxing champion Glenn McCrory charged with threatening & abusive behaviour after 'calling waitresses 'pet''
FORMER world boxing champion Glenn McCrory has been charged with threatening and abusive behaviour after allegedly calling waitresses "pet."
The boxer and TV pundit, 57, is said to have insulted two teen girls at a VIP dinner in London on September 25.
McCrory was dining at a £5,000-a-head dinner at the London Academy of Excellence when the bust-up was allegedly sparked by his comments to the girls.
He was dining as a guest of honour, held before Anthony Joshua's world heavyweight match against Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk.
An official complaint about the pundit’s alleged behaviour was made to the Metropolitan Police, reports The Sunday Mirror.
McCrory, from Newcastle upon Tyne, strongly denies all the allegations.
