    Good fight for an eliminator for British title? Anwar is mandatory at the moment for Witter and doubt Witter is going to fight Gavin instead.

    Vassell would give Gavin very tough test IMO and would certainly take him into the late rounds.

    Would be more exciting than a Witter fight.
     
  3. He needs to do something.

    His lack of progression is frankly embarrassing.

    They've got to make a serious move within a year, even if it means him getting laid out.... might as well retire otherwise.

    Is it me, or is Frank incapable of dealing with multiple fighters? He's always had big stables, but only really concentrated on one at a time.

    I thought with his sons in the mix, more fights would be getting made

    I've always thought every British prospect should try and win the Lonsdale belt outright before moving on to euro or world honours but with Gavin they could stick him in with a world level fighter and he would be alright in my opinion, might as well fight ndou then look at what belt to go for imo

    Great fight!

    Frankie on points, but Denton would REALLY test his mettle.

    I'd give him slight edge, but I think Vassell's pressure would put Gavin in some tricky situations

    Yea I'm starting to get bored of Gavin. But if you think he's had it bad, look at BJS.

    FrankW needs to sort himself out.

    :deal Frank just doesn't have the money to have his prospects out more then 5 times a year.

    Boxnation was meant to bring up an coming fighters through, has it bollocks.

    Billy Joe is getting the right fights! Frank has actually done well by him IMO, but he is one of few. Has the biggest test of his career next week.
