What Frank don't know about Boxing aint worth knowing, he's forgotten more about boxing than what most of us will ever learn. I for one don't like change, i like my tradition and Frank ticks all the boxes for me of how a promoter should conduct himself, he's as old skool as they come, he's proper. Like him or love him no one can deny its great to have him building this platform he's building. As Frank says, fighter against fighter he's got a much better stable than his new sparring partner Eddie over at Matchroom and i think he's right on the money with that. Its funny cause i thought that Matchroom would drain Franks stable but the reality is the real quality nags seem to be going back the other way over to Frank, leaving Matchroom as a one trick pony. If Frank gets Fury, which he should because he's always stuck up for Tyson, that will leave both Matchroom and SKY very exposed should their Shergar get chopped down. James DeGale should sign up and show a bit of loyalty here and what he doesn't want to do is continue to sit in between Frank and Eddie jerking them both off like a skier coming out of the blocks because this is boxing not skiing. Same goes for Selby.
I have to rate frank. A couple years back it looked like he was finished. He's got that old school cockney gangster swag and tenacity that kept him going.
Depends if he can keep Degale and selby happy and tie them down for a few fights not just a fight by fight deal.
Yep. In all fairness to him, he comes back massively just when you think he's done. If he could get a great team around him who are young, ambitious and think modern in terms of social media etc, he'll give Hearn fits.
Seen Degale's IFL interview and as soon as Kugan asked who he thinks will win, Eubank or Groves, I knew he would say Groves! That boy is shook from young Christopher Livingstone Eubank Jr! All these fighters feel threatened by Jr hence the need to try and play him down. It's a comforting mechanism. EUBANKSS GONNAAA GET YAAA ALL ABOARD THE EUBANK TRAIN! CHOO CHOO!!
I think selby will stay with Frank and make the Frampton and Warrington fights. DeGale however, if you watch the IFLTV interview he is basically telling eddie hearn come and get me. Degale sounded like that ex Girlfriend who starts dating someone you dont get on with to make you jealous but would come back to yours with you asoon as you asked.
