    What dilemma? He owns a frigging Tv station and is in control of his own destiny :patsch Before Pro Hunter and Solaris etc start blabbering on yes we know - ''the station is going to close soon'' ''BT are coming'' etc

    It's also conveniently dismissed that there is an increasing amount of domestic action being shown on the station as Frank has opened his doors to other promoters frozen out by other stations..for example this Saturdays card which is first class my friend.

    He fought cleverly in Liverpool to fill the arena . And it's hardly a shock he had to go to Canada to fight the Canadian based world champ . **** comparison .

    I think Dean did a bit more then that mate.
    No I'm just a realist who understands how boxing works - but if Frank will pay me more then my current wages then I will happily polish his shoes

    "Control of his own destiny" - yet gives Bill Ives 65% of the shareholding in return for the investment the channel badly needed in order to keep going.

    Stop before you embarrass yourself further Dragon Punch. Even Terminator_X has given up and accepted he's wrong.

    Hennessy, Hobson and Mcguigan are all on board mate - and all seem to be thriving. Maloney and Ricky disappeared but they where effectively replaced anyway and franks putting on Ricky's fighters on his own bills anyway.

    Not sure if your in business or what your knowledge is but I don't think it would have been in the business plan for a business as mammoth as a tv station to turn a profit or maybe even break even in only approx it's 3rd year in existence mate. And no business is realistically going to turn down investment opportunities from a major business man like Bill Ives no matter how well it's going. No BN is not bothering sky - I never said it was- intact sky are happy that the station exists as it takes the pressure from them having to show the big US fights etc which is an expensive nonsense to then.

    Go back and watch BN introduction press conference and I'll think you'll find they have delivered on the major things they promised- I think that is how you should measure success not bitter anti Warrren Ramblings and guess work.

    Who are these fighters that aren't getting paid 'at all'..
    burns is at court so Tbc, Calzaghe was dealt with - who else?
    Several of franks fighters such as BJS have gone on record to say that they are happy to stay with frank as he pays more then other promoters even
    Though they might get the money after a few weeks rather then straight away.

    Burns was bumped , the bounced cheques equating to 160k were shown for all to see , Calzaghe got Stung and Khan and Hatton jumped ship , whyd you think Terry Marsh popped one in him , Theres a list or debtors as long as the eye can see in his liquidated companys down to high street florists and sole traders etc etc the vermin ******* that he is , Simple rules an honest days work for an honest days pay , Been proven time n time again hes as bent as uri gellers spoons , Personally i think his actions deserve another one popped in him and if he keeps up this style of wrong doings its a possibility imo, From Memory he also fcucked Kevin Mitchell for 70k which Bill Ives paid simply because hes in a relationship with Kevins Mum

    FFS your digging up the Terry Marsh thing - I'm talking about BN and Warrrens relevance to boxing and your going on about terry marsh. If you want to dig up the past involving promoters etc do you honestly think Ppl like Barry Hearn were squeaky clean back in the day lol.

    If Warrren bounced a cheque on Burns and legitamatley tried to screw him out of money he will be outed in court soon - let's wait and see what happens later this year.

    Kevin Mitchell was delivered a chance at the world title at west Han at great expense and the fcuker couldn't be arsed to train and instead was getting pissed up in romford pubs instead as a result he got battered in two rounds- Frannk was always bailing him out when he was skint also...if Frrank was late on a payment then Kevin maybe should gave shown him the same loyalty that Frrank showed him - but I don't know the facts.

    Not sure what khan and Hatton have to do with anything. calzage has been happy to sit ringside next Frank for cleverly and Enzo fights so he couldn't have had that much of a problem.

    Re the liquidated companies do you have proof that the florists and taxi firms etc haven't been paid up? Anybody can liquidate a conpany happens all the time on business but it doesn't mean that debtors are left high and dry in the long run mate

    Ok mate - I simply asked you to name these fighters who aren't getting paid and screwed out of money because apart from the burns/clazaghe thing I'm not sure who you referring to?

    Ppl like you make these statements as if every fighter on his roster are coming out complaining about not being paid which is clearly not the case which is why your trying to deflect away from it now with nonsense about Martians..

    Look mate I criticize frank when he's being a fcuker the same way I do when a Hearn or Hennesy pull their crap but it really gets on mg nerves when idiots are pleading for BN to die and they want rid of Wareen etc - do you really want one dominate promoter in Hearn to run everything - competition is what drives boxing and right now with sky and BN we've got it better then ever.

    Boxnation is **** and dying week by week as subscribers leave.

    A total irrelevance to sport fans as most of the fights are broadcast in many countries and can be watched by UK viewers legally without a buttnation subscription

    The actual fight cards or the production?

    If it's the production/effects your talking about then yeah of course but that's down to sky money not really matchroom.

    If it's the quality of the actual fight cards it's pretty even INO - both have put on some great cards and both have put on crappy cards - swings in roundabouts
