    You haven't a clue what you are talking about, just a load of assumptions about negotiations that you have no insight into. Absolutely clueless.

    Terry Flanagan is not a baby he's a grown man, he also has a manager in Steve Wood who is no nonsense. The idea that frank is trying to force him into moving up and is witholding a linaries fight is just ridiculous.

    Josh Warrington has had only 2 fights with Warren for feck sake - his next fight is without doubt going to be against Selby seeing as Frank has manouvered him into Mandarory and is now working with Selby. What more are you expecting frank to do??

    Skette - tell us who your expecting this 'big fight' your calling for to be against? Keith Thurman/D Garcia/ or Spence at the Brentwood leisure centre??
    Bradley also wanted to win the British title outright which is why he was making the defences he has been. Frank also tried to get him the Horn fight but his team didn't want to know 'he's to boring they say'. The best that frank can do is get Bradley into a mandatory position - and I'm willing to bet by this summer he probably will be.

    Saunders - it's a miracle that Frank has managed to keep him in a position to hold a belt and he is now about to make HBO money against Lemeiux. If he wins well he will get paid a fortune against a Canelo/GGG or Cotto next year. He has been brilliantly promoted.

    I don't think the OP said Flanagan was being forced to move up.

    More like there is an option to move up and fight for a vacant title which will cost a lot less than making the Linares fight.

    Like it not it looks shady. You turn down Garcia as the fight with Linares is close. A few days later Flanagan has swerved Garcia and Linares to instead fight for a vacant title vs a considerably cheaper fighter.

    How do you explain that?

    I think Warren has taken time to adapt to the new era and has had his struggles. He disappoints sometimes but overall he deserves credit for forming BoxNation and working in the shadows of the Sky/Matchroom deal for so long. Now that he has the BT tie in things are gradually becoming more of a level playing field. Sky still hold the advantages and the next 18 months or so it is imperative that Warren delivers for his fighters. HEarn may remain in the number 1 position but if Warren can get high profile fights onto BT then he deserves credit for not throwing in the towel when he lost the Sky deal and making a good fist of the comeback.

    He is a good promoter but it is hard to compete with SKY

    Doesn't matter anyway as Kalle Sauerland is the official G.O.A.T promoter. Just seen him wearing some naughty Stone Island clobber.

    Between his very obvious cocaine habit, the WBSS and the sharp hair cut I think it's safe to say we are witnessing greatness.
