    So interview with Eddie on IFL today with him saying there will be some upcoming massive news.
    I have heard rumours that this news might be Tyson Fury signing for Matchroom. Do you think this will happen? I personally think it would be a good move as Eddie could build Fury back up and then make the big fight with AJ next year.
    If this happens then Frank is going to go mental!

    Frank has been bigging up Fury for so long but ultimately he's never had any hold over him or hughie. I would be very surprised if he didn't sign with Hearn , he has Joshua and Whyte and the ppv platform and most importantly , if Joshua goes it alone, Hearn stays relevant with the linear heavyweight champion.

    I think Tyson will sign with Frank though I agree I think he would be better with Matchroom. I think news will on commercial side maybe big sponsorship deal or massive new tv income from new avenues.

    Maybe the big news is he's going to follow Kellie Maloney. We'll soon see the unveiling of Edwina Hearns. Still with the designer stubble of course.

    Could it be the signing of BJS? Post his 1 fight left with Frank? That would also open up the door to Fury signing and the pair earning far more on sky than they have for Fat Mick and Fish Eyes.

    Note: I find Hearn a smarmy pencil necked gobshite but at least he delivers for his big name fighters both home advantage, stadiums and big pay checks. Fat Mick has guys like Froch fighting in leisure centres and Warren has been sued by pretty much anyone of any note he's ever promoted over money.

    I don’t remember Bruno, Hatton, Naz, Khan, BJS, Benn, Eubank, McGuigan, McCullough, Mike Tyson, Degale, Collins, Barrera etc sueing frank...likewise none of the current crop.

    The only ones I can think of are, Ricky Burns (which Ricky lost) Calzaghe and Terry Marsh..

    You shouldnt tell fibs mate.

    As for Saunders - he wouldnt leave Frank to go to Eddie in a million years why would he? There is nothing that Eddie can do for him that Frank isn’t and there is no way Eddie would pay him the same type of money unless he could come up with a box office fight which is unlikely. Billy is managed by MTk anyway and their steering there fighters to Frank aNyway.

    Hopefully, Eddies news is he’s got Fury who I would prefer Warren gives up on or maybe signing another US fighter to promote on HBO.

    I wouldnt be too delighted if I was Joshua on Fury signing with Hearn. If it happens.

    Fury and Saunders double signing!
    Doubt it but it's a possibility! They would become huge names under Hearn and bitter old Fish Eyes would be pissed off haha.

    There’s no chance it’s Fury after Frank has been so confident of signing him. Be a proper cunnts trick from Tyson and although he’s many things I just couldn’t see him doing that.

    American based fighters sounds more realistic.

    Alright Mr. Warren - you're not thought of by the public for ripping off your fighters and dodgy company liquidations... You and Hatton and all the other British fighters you've represented have nothing but good things to say about their business transactions with you...

    Joshua's contract with Matchroom is almost up I believe. Maybe it's that and he's just gonna disappoint us all.
