    In my opinion for what it is worth and I have seen quite a bit of Theophane I would advise Gavin to avoid that fight for now while he improves like he needs to. Theophane cannot be equated with the likes of Michael Lomax. I remember some months back some said he should fight for Ajose's Commonwealth title and that would be a guaranteed way to ruin a top prospect's career. There are somethings you don't recover from.

    I agree with Theopane. He has bigger fish to fry. Why would he want to put his title on the line against a fighter who showed a pretty flat performance on the weekend. I doubt this would be a huge money fight like Degale and Groves. So why take uneccessary risks? I feel Gavin would outpoint Theopane quite handily, but that besides the point. Boxing is about politics, there isn't much incentive for Ashley at this point.

    Warren doesn't seem to be making an effort to further Frankies career. He should go to matchroom. He isn't fighting enough, fighting at the wrong weight etc.
