    Heard a rumour he got offered a pro deal, which would see him make his debut on the Hatton-Magic Man card.

    yeh he is already 5 years behind Amir Khan so he should go to the states and learn quickly to catch up.

    What annoyed me was that that Adlington lass only got about ten grand a year funding and Frankie Gavin got 75 grand a year as he was a medal cert.

    Who ends up with 2 olympic golds witha swimsuit 2 sizes too small and who didn't even fight as he couldn't make the weight.

    if any of these top British kids don't turn pro there fools, the olympic stuff is rubbish and top fighter in history are not ameture and if you are getting hit why not do it in the pro's for money.

    Gavins style is apparently seriously boring to watch, without the olympic medal to get his name out there, hes not gonna make much.

    also the fact he wasnt motivated enough to get weight down for the olympic games, hows he gonna get motivated for fighting 6 rounders.

    The best we can hope for is an upgraded southpaw version of Paulie Malignaggi
