    Happens once or twice, you think .........bad luck way it goes. Every single PPV event he puts on, the main fights get dismantled a week before the event.

    Put on a great card, sell all the tickets, build the PPV up, then in last week cancel half the fights.

    This guy should be on Watchdog.

    The problem here was this was not a great card. Had he stacked the bill with Murray vs Mitchell, Burns world title and Frankie Gavin in a meaningful fight this could have still worked as a PPV.

    Shameful display by Frank. He is incapable of honouring his promises.

    Enjoy your impending ban, mods have a raging hardon for Warren here.

    Always have a backup, he should know this. Instead of diluting his shows, put a decent undercard on so if one falls through, you've got something to fall back on. Simple.

    To be fair it's not usually his fault although with picking Braehmer as an opponent there was always going to be a risk he wouldn't show.

    I couldn't give a **** about banning, hes a ****ing ***** and does nothing good for Boxing. These shitty ass watered down PPV cards. How on earth can he get away with altering so many main events so late on.

    I despise the *****, cause sad thing is you KNEW something like this was happening, only suprised is it's not Degale vs Groves being called off.

    As a Boxing fan you are being raped once again.

    Anyway i hope your all boycott it and watch it for free.

    The show's life-saver is Groves-Degale, which has been getting a lot of publicity too.

    Did anyone read the warren article around the time of the khan ppv? He talks about how a PPV needs a strong undercard especially when it hasn't got a huge main event. I'll try and find it

    Happened to me when I went to Wales to watch Calzaghe vs Manfredo. Enzo cvs Haye was supposed to be on the card!! Never ever trust Frank.

    Even if every fall out is legit then it is still his fault due to the fact he doesn't genuinely stack the cards. He puts names on his card vs absolute shite opponents. If this card was stacked then I wouldn't care.
