Frankie Gavin-Leonard Bundu Set For August 1st

Frankie Gavin will challenge WBC #4 and IBF #3 Leonard Bundu for the European title on August 1st in Wolverhampton.

Good fight for Frankie. Thoughts?

 

Good fight this although I beleive purdy made him look better than he really is and at 39 I think gavin will have too much for him

 

Good solid fight and a step up for Frankie- it's been slow but he's career is finally starting to take real shape - good stuff

 

Nice!

It's all or nothing in this fight for Frankie. If he were to lose, I shudder to think what would be next for him...

All the best, Frankie!

 

It's a step up but honestly Frankie should have been passed fights like this already I know he's had his problems but his last few opponents have been shocking. I know Frankie use to be on here see if your reading this for the sake of your career get a new promotor ASAP.

 

Well we'll see, no point moaning about the past because nothing can be done retrospectively. To put it into perspective though he's the same age as Brook and his isn't really all that further ahead than Brook, which is staggering considering the well documented problems Gavin as had historically. Hopefully it'll be plain sailing now.

 

I'm sick to death of reading this bull.

Give it a rest.

 

Yeah mate, because Frankie would be WBC champion under Hearn or Hennessy etc

 

Sick to death of what ? Do share please we could all be doing with a laugh.

 

Bull? How so?

He has gone BACKWARDS since beating Denton. Fact.

 

looking forward to this one.

 

I thought Purdy gave Bundu hell and at one point it looked like Purdy was going to get rid of him, but he didn't have the ability. Gavin's got that ability.

 

but not the power possibly? people said this against vassell tho and looked what happen there

a fight i expect frankie to win - good step in the right direction

 

I agree.

After the fight against Denton (A very promising prospect) he should have stepped up to a couple of Euro level top 30 fighters. Someone like say, Senchenko.

Instead he went to fight 3 bums. Seriously, what the hell was he doing fighting Bradley Pryce? What was the point?

 

Power is overrated mate. Frankie's got the distance and timing that's better.
The way Frankie counters from his southpaw stance his timing is world class and his defence is superb. It's his foot movement that makes him so hard to hit.

I agree Frankie will beat Bundu, he'll make him look the old age he is because he feet will be too fast and he'll tire Bundu out and make him miss then make him pay. A step in the right direction :good
