    Roach cant teach him anything Arnie or Jimmy cant,boxers must take responsability for there actions.

    your not in Manchester on ****ing holiday your there for one thing and one thing only.

    discipline comes within ,london ,manchester its all the ****ing same **** hole of a place.

    FG shoulda gonne over to LA ,imo the sparring is better up north than down south.

    sounds like FG is making excuses for his **** poor performance typical fighters mentality.

    who dose arnie have left to train?

    I find the criticism of Frankie on here laughable. All the little girl whiners go on that he needs to make serious changes. He does and then they complain how they show a lack of discipline.

    Never once has he looked close to losing. Never once has he been hurt or in trouble. He had two iffy showings (in fights he won comfortably) and is now addressing the issues.

    Some of you need to STFU and get lives. When he loses, you can all go "I told you so", but until then show some support. What qualification do any of you have, other than as fans, to say the things you're saying? None.

    nope. your his mate, right?

    most people on here are proper boxing fans who have watched countless fighters on their journey. over time you learn to pick up the signs and clues that indicate what a fighter is capable of.

    the problem with frankie isnt natural talent, it just the signs we see at this stage dont tie in with someone headed for greatness. its the opposite, its all too familiar, its someone flushing their career down the toilet.

    the boxers themselves always seem to be the last person to realise this.

    Never met the guy. I've been on this site for seven years or something and "most" people on this site are "proper" boxing fans? Does that suggest either I'm not, or that you are? The instant someone ever says that I stop taking them seriously because my favourite cliche is usually minutes away: "I'm a true boxing fan". "Most" people on this site are flaming drama queens who go overboard the instant a fighter shows any weakness. Have a look at the general for evidence of that.

    And what a load of **** anyway - all the concern has come from the fact he's a) not ripped and b) looked a little bored in completely outclassing his last two opponents.

    People see what they want to see. I wait to see the evidence.

    crikey a lot disection into the reasons why FG leaving. He has said already personal reasons, gordan bennett. I agree that FG's performance has room for improvement but it's still early days. People get too excited too quickly imo and jump to all sorts of conclusions.
