    So what you guys are trying to say is that Frankie should sit here and take comments insulting his character (insultng ones ability is a different thing) becuase he's a 'pro'? STFU, that is pathetic.

    No, he is more then entitled to act like a 16 year old chav if that's what he wants to do but with that comes a reputation of being a twat with a bad personality. As I said before Steve Bunce wouldn't react to it, someone like PBF might...the difference between them? Class.

    Some right ****ing beauts on here.

    I don't see why someone should just sit back and take personal insults off some no mark behind a computer screen regardless of whether they're a professional or not.

    Bit of respect needs to be shown by some to those who actually have the balls to get in the ring for starters.

    Frankie has every right to be ****ed off with that, and I thought he was pretty polite considering.

    If yourself or someone/something you care about was insulted in a pub you'd say something so I dont see why it should be any different on the internet.

    "Feather fisted. Lacking in character. Can give it out but can't take it back. Grade A bully. Will be exposed."

    Will be exposed is fair enough, if you dont rate him thats your opinion but "Grade A bully" "Cant take it back" "Lacking in character" are allegations with no foundation. Feather fisted? Well we'll have to see how he goes over the years. At least give proper reasons for not rating him, not made up nonsense.

    "FAO Everyone else: Just so we're clear, I think Frankie Gavin is a great fighter from what I have seen and he would no doubt batter nulty but that would hardly prove his punching power, and him mouthing off like a chav twat on here does him no favours either."

    Posted 1 page earlier, as a boxer Frankie Gavin is one of my favourite British fighters to watch (although as stated I prefer DeGale), however his conduct on here as was nultys, was the stuff of playground children. I'm not even gonna much judge him for this, he's even younger than me and I hardly feel I am a grown up. However I hold hopes that this poster isn't him and he doesn't react this way to idiots, they're not worth his time.

    What does Jimmy Neary have to do with this?? I'll answer you question anyway.. Yes I did think he was a world champion when he started fighting world rated guys!!

    I asked you to point out how is Frankie a bully?? How will he not be able to take it back??

    I just asked you to justify your points?? Can you not do that??

    As for me being Deberecen, Thank you.Just to be involved in the champions league is a bonus. I think if you look a little closer you'll find that Chad Dawson is the Real Madrid of my division mate..:good

    I'd also like to state, It must be very hard to do what Frankie has done so far cos once again NO ONE from this country has been able to repeat his success, I didn't have the best relationship with Terry Edwards BUT I respect his opnion and did you look at his comments about Frankie?? The best boxing brain he has ever seen!!

    Now take into consideration who the man has coached!! Haye,Khan,Froch,Smith,Price,DeGale,Perkins,Barker,Fry just to name a few!!

    Common mate show a bit of class and just tell us why you made the comments in your first post?? I'll answer any question you want me to!!;)

    That's a cop out to excuse somebody elses twatish behaviour that instigated the whole thing. Frankie is a professional boxer, it doesn't mean he's a diplomat or politician that is in any way expected to put up with ****.

    He's a human just like the rest of us and people are taking pops at him personally and he takes the time to post as far as I can see he's just giving out what he's given.

    This ALWAYS happens when somebody in the sport takes time to post. Some **** has to be a big man and make a name for themselves and they end up leaving.

    :good Exactly, if someone says "I don't think Frankie will go past British level because...*insert valid reason*" then that's fair enough but there's no need for some of the stuff that's been posted in this thread.

    Look nulty was a twat and I make no excuse for him being a twat, but so was Frankie...him being a boxer has nothing to do with that and if you can see this with a level head you will see that too. Just be above that ****, I'm not saying he's a bad person if he doesn't, but it does show lack of character....which is exactly what nulty said.

    PS. I don't want beef with Frankie or to make a name for myself off his on a forum, I'm not that stupid. You just gotta roll with the punch's sometimes.
