    Why in peoples eyes have the Board messed up so badly?

    They probably don't have the money to fight Frank in court so they are trying a different way to stop him undermining their organisation. Plain and simple they have to fight it.

    They're 'world' title fights.

    I'm saying this could split up British boxing, imagine a promoter using separate boards constantly.

    This is why so many belts ****ing came along n the first place.

    One day there could be two british belts.

    I'm shocked so many of you support this, yes its a good smart fight to make but it will leave a bad scar on how this sport is controlled.

    They don't have any kind of case in the first place. It isn't illegal to put on a boxing show, using the Luxembourg organization or not.

    If the BBC don't **** off then Haye vs Chisora will both just fight within the rules of an unlicensed fight. Let Haye earn a fair wage you nazi ****s.

    There are two many bodies in boxing without stepping on the toes of estabished organisations.


    It's about money. Frank could not care less about boxing fans.

    It the fragmentation of boxing that has led to so many belts and dilluted the sport.

    At the end of the day Chisora and Haye were out of order and should have abided by the BBBC decisions. No good will come of what Frank is doing. Soon he'll have the Luxembourg Commission in his pocket and will effectively sanction his own fights for WBO belts.

    Sounds to me like plenty of boxing fans want to watch this fight though. But maybe you're right and the BBBoC's strong objections to it are all to do with the good of the sport, and not the fact that they'll lose out on a fair bob or two if it's fought under the Luxembourg banner and not theirs.

    Its the same issue as in a promoter can now technically put forward any fight they want, if any probs, they go to someone else.

    Will ****** use BBBofC again?

    Can he set up other avenues now?

    Bollocks to the BBBofC. They've already shown they're pretty cack-handed and this statement by old fish-eyes is pretty astute in calling them out on their inconsistencies. About time the BBBofC either had a substantial overhaul or was disbanded entirely and a new governing body formed. This is the second best thing Frank's done, just behind the time he stopped that bullet, and just ahead of nearly dying.
