    To be fair, Frank is well equipped to comment on fighters getting the short end of the stick...

    personally I didnt think Bradley was impressive in beating Alexander at all.

    Kotelnik after the 4th round had Alexander shut down, bradley was having more difficulty with him and his main weapon was illegal headbutts

    "Frankie has impressed me big-time since going pro two years ago. He will fight for the WBO Intercontinental title on May 21 after Kell Brook was stripped of the belt."

    What's the reasoning behind stripping Brook? (Even if it is only an intercontinental strap)

    Why the **** is Gavin at welter?

    Fwank is such a bitter *******(allegedly), his articles always make me chuckle
