Does Eddie Hearn have to power to get this fight before Rose fights Sam Webb. With money issue delaying the fight could matchroom Force Rosr to fight Erick Ochieng?
Rose is fighting Vivian Harris next month :-( He should be defending his British Title or looking to get a European title shot. Ochieng/Rose is a brilliant 50/50 match up IMO.
Eddie Hearn @EddieHearn I see @brian_lion_rose complaining about outstanding payments from his promoter..it's rife in the game. Come fight @ErickTheEagle instead Who's his promoter?
Rose is supposed to fight Webb on big Priceys next bill in December. Apparently Webb didnt want the fight to happen in Blackpool on VIP bill. Webb is doing a 6rounder in October sometime. Ochieng will have to either do an eliminator or not fight again till next year if he was waiting for British shot. Cox is back soon but has to fight Sai so commonwealth wont be up again till feb/march next year.
****ing ridiculous this. I'm surprised fighters hand over their ticket money - they should at least keep that as deposit. If Rose sold 200 tickets at £35 each he'd have £7k, which would go a fair way towards a typical purse that he'd be on.
Webb and Rose got on but recently have lost time for one another as Webb stated by text ''your not the man i thought you were'' when he found out Rose was to defend his title for the first time against Maxwell. He felt he deserved the shot and maybe was told he would get first dibs.. The fight was on but Maloney supposedly didn't have enough money to put it on the Price bill. Rose claims Maloney said ''your the one i care for in this''. Now this money being owed stuff has emerged. Loads of homo in this post i know, not my words. There's.. Ochieng would be a fantastic final defence, and a deserving and credible defence..
