Just seen that frank buglioni now faces Craig Richards. What happened to Callum Johnson? This card has been abit of a disaster as far as pullouts go
Actually come to think of it Hosea is probably 10lbs or so off fight weight. This is a disaster that was the best undercard fight aside from Whyte-Helenius. Anyone who pays for this PPV needs shooting in the head.
I feel the same, no excuse whatsoever, he's probably at the advantage. real ***** move, to fight a super-middleweight who arguably lost a southern area fight at that weight
Utter shambles. If this was Frank he would be getting drilled from all directions. Why is this fcuking shithouse Buglioni not fighting Burton then? Gallagher said they where offered and accepted. I know this is not a Yarde thread, but for those who cried about Frank W not allowing him to be drawn into this mess can maybe now have a rethink? the whole thing was a joke and a shambles and it's all now becoming crystal clear.
Agreed apart from the last bit. I highly doubt Frank was able to foresee an injury to Buglioni in fight week
Not taking about this supposed injury to Johnson. I'm referring to this joke about Yarde having to fight Burton, in order to facilitate Gallagher agendas as he trains both CJ and Burton and Hearns agenda to keep Yarde away from Buglioni. It's was all a nonsense, as frank said from day 1. Even Buglioni has turned down the Burton fight to fight spider Rixhards! He probably smelled a rat about CJ injury and didnt want to be involved in fighting Burton!
Cards getting worse by the day. Up there with the worst one eddies done for me. Started off packing the cards with established names a lot of the time against half decent fighters. Now getting away with guys that aren't established fighting replacements or mediocre fights. Can't be using ppv to bring through prospects etc or even trying to establish names...even Katie Taylors a stretch. Get them on normal sky sports.
Yeah, the have had some terrible luck with that card. Difference is it happens alll the time to Franks cards this is a rarity for Eddie. As for Frank Buglioni yeah that’s weak not taking the Burton fight.
Just looking through hearns roster...there's actually very few thats actually worth pay per view even as an undercard. Outside of Joshua he doesn't really have a deserving ppv fighter. Everyone else needs a good dance partner. Its either he's lost anyone worthwhile, guys on the downward slope or guys that aren't that marketable. Losing quiggs been a bigger setback that people first thought I think. Always a half decent scrap with quigg. Kind of losing out on groves and eubank juniors been a big blow. Plus degale not really featuring on the ppvs. All had a knock on effect. Needed frampton. Froch and even Mitchell retirings been a blow as well. Mitchell was pretty established considering he wasn't at the top of the sport. Appears that eddies trying to establish guyd on the ppv,s instead of on normal sky. Not a great business move imo. Starting to think frank just might be able to sneak his way slowly back into contention if hearn doesn't get his finger out.
