    To make MEANINGFUL fights or not?

    Because an offer like the one he made Frampton is out of character for him, as he usually likes to milk what he can.

    I reckon Edwards bosses have saw through his bullish*t 'matches' and want to see real fights. Agreed?

    Yes agreed, They are trying to make a very good fight, a big fight. Well at least that fight will be a must see and a must have for any network

    Talking of bull**** matches...
    Hows Algieri going down with the networks over in Khan's second home? Sounds like after the embarrassing video announcement they have all passed and now Khan is trying to back peddle... Agreed?

    He's his own boss
    Matchroom is his dad's company and Eddie runs the boxing side now

    He just has a tv deal with sky.....they ain't his bosses
    They could quite easily terminate that deal when it's up for renewal

    If they terminate the deal with Eddie, who else is there to offer a deal to? Frank? A conflict of interest when he has his own 'network'. Matchroom have boxed Sky off and the contract will be renewed. There is no competition.

    Matchroom has squashed the competition and with the whole package they offer sky with darts and a bit of snooker, they wont be losing that contract anytime soon.


    Sky are more than happy with what Eddie and sky are providing them

    Maybe he just wants to make a ton of money? Seeing how much money that was made for Froch Groves last year, can't see why he wouldn't want to put on more super fights in the future.

    Eddie can make good loot from pitching Joshua against Binmen.

    He doesn't need to do super fights.
