    I can see him and Yafai brothers featuring in Birmingham and Midland Area shows.

    I think the last big show at the NEC was Benn v Eubank in 1990

    Could be a really good move

    Euro shot, Bundu II then Brook etc

    If there was ever a time for Frankie to be confident and grow as a fighter, it's now. He has Sky backing him and now has a real chance to land a big fight with either Khan or Brook.

    His career hasn't take off, maybe a switch of promoter is a good idea. Atleast matchbook can offer hin a route (IBF), Waren couldn't do that

    Waren could've got him a WBO shot, but Gavin blew it.

    From what I can tell Hearn always treats his fighters well and has yet to be shot by any former employee's of his :lol:

    Good on Gavin making the move to Matchroom, Whilst I believe Brook has bigger fish to fry in fighting Khan or Mayweather/Pacquiao Gavin could potentially be a future opponent if managed well :

    Leonard Bundu
    Kevin Bizier / Jo Jo Dan
    Thurman / Bradley

    if Gavin can get through those 3 fights then I dont see why he couldnt be a legitimate world title challenger . . . . that being said its a tall order to ask for but its not impossible.

    Thurman struggled and essentially ran from Bundu so before people say he would easily dispose of Gavin is a bit far fetched.

    As for Timothy Bradley, hes battle worn and can be dragged away from his game plan easily as shown in his fights vs Pacquiao, Chaves and Provodnikov.

    Currently ranked #10 WBA and #5 IBF.

    Best of luck to the guy and again hes made a very smart move by going with the UK's #1 promoter

    What's funny? Gavin lost to Bundu. If he would've beat him, he'd have been in line mate.

    Big Div - Manny hasn't held a title in years son.

    Lost to Skeete and Warden wanted the rematch.

    Knew his career would be over if he lost to Bradley who is unlikely to ever go above Euro level.

    In essence is avoiding Skeete
