Henson ready to move on from bar knockout

Wales centre Gavin Henson says he regrets the incident that saw him sent sprawling to the floor in a city centre bar by a punch from Bath team-mate Carl Fearns. The two players were warned and fined by English Premiership side Bath after Fearns hit Henson during a pre-season social event that took place just a month after the Welshman had joined the club. Henson has challenged Fearns to a charity boxing match, but he said on Tuesday that he was eager to draw a line beneath the incident. \"It wasn\'t a great start to my Bath career and I\'d like to put that behind me,\" he told BBC Radio Bristol. \"Hopefully I can get out on the field and people will see me as just a rugby player. That wasn\'t a great moment but you have to have these team bonding sessions. Daft things seem to happen when I go out. \"It was a bit embarrassing and not a great thing for the club, but I like to think the squad grew closer together after that. \"I had a big headache that day and I went down quite easily. Maybe we will have a charity boxing match at the end of the year so I can get a bit of respect back.\" Henson, who has been capped 33 times by his country, joined Bath from London Welsh in June. The 31-year-old has failed to live up to his early promise and was previously released from Cardiff Blues and French side Toulon for off-field indiscretions. Source: AFP
