Does this lad have any sense of reality? He's so undeserving of a shot at Kell at the moment. Like our foreign cousins say: "He's got Skeete problems!"
It's his best hope of a world title fight though, and we know how much Eddie likes a big 'domestic showdown' so I guess it makes sense for him to sign with Matchroom and target the IBF route. Not exactly gonna get a shot at Mayweather or Pacman...
Kell will dwarf Gavin in there, frankie should be fighting at 140/135, he clearly has a good 10lbs of fat he could lose.
he does have a point though he is no 5 in ibf rankings, whether he deserves to be there or not is another matter. can see him winning against a soft touch in march on brooks undercard, and maybe some kind of eliminator in may? rankings, are below, I doubt Bradley and khan are that bothered about their ibf ranking position. 1. Jo Jo Dan 2. Not Rated 3. Timothy Bradley 4. Amir Khan 5. Frankie Gavin 6. Shawn Porter 7. Robert Guerrero 8. Devon Alexander 9. Sadam Ali 10. Diego Chaves 11. Kevin Bizier 12. Antonin Decairie 13. Fredrick Lawson 14. Josesito Lopez 15. Yoshihiro Kamegai
Gives kell an easy mandatory next time he needs one and it being an all domestic world title fight in one of the main divisions in the sport I guess, pretty similar to the groves/cleverly signings
Frankie is not signed to Matchroom you ****s listen to the IFLI interview he's on a five fight deal if he don't perform he's dropped
Hearn should bring Bundu back over -give Frankie the opportunity to show he's the better man if that's what he believes then He can start to talk about Brook (personally that still wouldn't be enough but better then where is now)
