Anyone see the IFL video with the weigh in etc for this fight? Wow the state of this promotion, no poster, looked like it was in a telesales office in some shared complex, come on Frank but even by your standards this is dire, Before i get called an Eddie hearn bumboy i think he also has some awful cards with some terrible mismatches, but any aspiring young prospects/talents must see the shows he puts on and how far ahead he is of the rivals. The state of that weigh in, Frank has gone a long way since his sky sports promotions! I dare say young fighters should look at the likes of Hennesey and other small hall promoters before joining Frank he needs a reality check
Don't even understand why this fight is happening, it's a backwards step and does nothing for Skeete. Singleton drew with a journeyman last time out he doesn't even deserve a shot at the British title.
Technically it's not franks card - it's Andy Aylingsbut either way who cares if the weigh in is low budget? It's a small show/card full of prospects/local fighters - and it's only on BN not BT.
Skeete should be in the same position Eggington is in. Since the Skeete fight Eggington has been matched perfectly while Skeete has stagnated and just hasn't progressed how he should.
Can always rely on 1 know it all on this forum to grace us, cheers boxrec for letting know appreciate it
You guys need to watch Skeete's IFL interview from the other day. He knows that after beating Eggington, Eggington has gone on to greater things than himself. He knows that. He wants to win the British outright and then try to move on to world level. Whether you think that's smart or not that's what he's trying to do. Personally I don't think it's the worst idea to gain more experience and finesse your skills at British level before trying to move up to world level. Because God knows Eggington will be totally out of his league at world level and beating a shot to pieces Malignaggi doesn't change that.
This will be the story of Fwanks shows by year 2 or 3..........God does he need Fury!!!!! BJS is gonna just evaporate after he gets sparked by one of the proper WC and fighters like Flanagan can't draw attention even as a WC so no hope there! Maybe Dubois and Yarde will save his arse by year 3 but for now he's just praying for Fury!!!
