    Absolutely but he's signed some young up and coming fighters though hasn't he? I was thinking long term rather than short.

    Fury's contract with Top rank has ended hasn't it?

    Just to be clear I'm not part of the Matchroom v Queensbury nonsense.

    I reckon we're seeing the end of 1 outfit having such a big share. With Eddie & sky separating, Frank relevant again, Kalle and even Hennesy etc and probellum also starting to make a noise fighters will end up scattered among so many they'll have to work together to make the fights they should. Maybe wishful thinking here on my part but surely in-house mismatches & practically criminal ppv can't just go on forever. Fans are catching on I think but boxings become the only sport where the actual fans aren't the target market.

    The talent pool is getting smaller and the amount of different promotional companies and channels is getting bigger. I really think we’re about to hit a huge period of decline in British boxing and unless they all work together it’ll be even worse.

    I don't disagree but if they do work together it'll be fine....hopefully

    Neither am I mate, although this forum seems good for slamming one in particular haha!

    Has made signings, but lets be honest long term they are unlikely to stay with FW. Think Fury has 1 fight left on TR deal. No idea what Queensbury situation is, imagine its literally just the BT side of things.

    Got to be happy for Jason Cunningham, gone from being the opponent to now being a solid British champion. From being stopped by Reece Belotti (who has now become an opponent himself) to where he is now is a fantastic achievement.

    Frank is doing a good job for the likes of Cunningham, Callum Johnson, Zach Parker etc. Good honest fighters who will be a much higher priority for Frank than they would be/were for Hearn.

    Matchroom are fast becoming a bit of a novelty act - it’s all stories and narratives. Fighters like Johnny Fisher prioritised over fringe world level fighters like Callum Johnson because he’s got a few fans.
