Genius marketing.
Pot Noodle’s latest advert has been causing quite a stir. It follows a young man named Michael Moran as he engages in some Rocky Balboa-esque training montages which one would assume is his preparations on his path to become a a boxer.
However, the M. Night Shyamalan twist in the tale (no, the trees aren’t killing people) is that his actual dream is to become a “ring boy” at a massive Las Vegas fight.

Well, it turns out he actually got the chance to fulfil his dream ahead of the Anthony Joshua v Gary Cornish fight at London’s O2. While it’s not quite the MGM Grand, it’s pretty damn close.
By all accounts, the London crowd absolutely loved as a big cheer echoed around the stadium as Moran pranced around the ring.
