    Terry Flanagan has just called out Linares on instagram. “Let’s get this fight made”

    I dont know how he thinks he will get linares attention he probably only has 10 followers and one of them will be Frank Warren.

    Warren really has done a terrible job with him profile wise, the contrast between him and crolla says it all.

    Oh I agree. He should be looking for a new promoter as he won't get anywhere with Warren.

    Especially since Flanagan is leagues above Crolla in terms of ability.

    This is the problem Dubois and Yarde are going to have. Warren is ruining careers.

    Get Flanagan Crolla made or this Linares fight made and his profile will rocket.

    Leagues above?? Really.

    I see them both about the same - high euro, fringe world class fighters. Flannagan doesn't beat Linares either

    Flanagan is the worst promoted boxer in Britain. Feel sorry for him, though if he has recently renewed his contact or extends it on back of the way he's been treated I would lose sympathy for him.

    Skeete is another example...

    Skeete vs Eggington Skeete won the fight yet I would think 3x as many people know who Eggington is.

    As for Dubois I think he will be alright to be fair... I think he will become known as almost like a terminator type doesnt say much but knocks people out like he is some machine... and they should probably keep it like that.

    Warren's entire stable is on ice for whatever reason, the only time he can get his fighters a decent bout is when they are mandatory.

    So we've heard the other day from Linaries team that Frank Has has put a very good offer in for the fight and negotiations are ongoing so let's see what happens.

    As for Flanagan's promotion, whilst Terry is a better fighter then Crolla he doesn't have his personality. Plus until 6 months ago Frank hasn't had a platform to push his fighters anywhere near the scale as Sky/Hearn so its a silly comparison.

    Flanagan can say what he wants, but will Frank put up the ££££ to get Linares over here....

    He's not a draw like Mitchell & Crolla.

    It's terrible how Frank has promoted Flanagan but as soon as Frank gets you a wbo title the trash title defenses start I mean none of the opponents even made him look good apart from the mandatory fight he had I mean the bt money hasn't really improved anything really paid to bring Davis over instead of a linares I know who I would have spent the money on the more winnable fight

    Not knocking EH at All, but cannot exactly be rocket science promoting when you have Sky's backing.
