    I'm starting to really like FW which is rather disturbing Lol


    "Under rule 4.12 of your own Rules and Regulations, as a licence holder I can participate (a) in or be at a promotion which is licensed by the BBBofC; or (b) in or at a Promotion organised by a Federation, Commission, Association or Controlling Authority affiliated to, or recognised by the BBBofC. The Federation Luxembourgoise De Boxe is a Federation affiliated to and recognised by the Board. Both are affiliated to the EBU (European Boxing Union). As that Federation is sanctioning the Haye v Chisora fight, my participation is not a breach of your rules."


    I can't see any way out for the BBBofC, they have tried to exercise power they do not have judging by their own rules so they will either have to back down or go to court.

    I don't like Frank at all, but he is a good thing for the sport. He gets stick because he's a businessman before he's a fight fan.

    When Frank takes over the running of the Luxembourg Commission he will create a new British belt sanctioned by the WBO.


    Don't worry it will be great for boxing.

    Thats a load of F'in cobblers. No one but a bunch of stuck up toffs give a **** about any of this self righteous bull****. If the Chisora Haye scrap never made the press no one would have cared. Boxing is part of British culture. It's going nowhere no matter what these pompous pricks think. The BBBofC if they had any common sense wouldnt have got them selves dragged into the melee in the first place and should have distanced themself from the issue and the press. Now they're trying to save face and scupper one of the best events to happen to boxing in decades? **** em. I want to see a fight!
    Personally i'm behind ****** a 1000%. The BBBofC don't have a leg to stand on. And a wiley old fox like ****** well and knows this.

    Is that true? Is that the actual reason I have to refer to him as Frank 'place rabbits live in'?

    Its either legal action or more than likely the threat of legal action which I imagine has been made clear to the ESB owners, otherwise the mods would not be so draconian on the issue. Frank does have a history of filing the lawsuits over the smallest issues.

    It's not often I have anything positive to say about Frank, but I love that letter. BBBoC acting like santimonious twats on this one, due to media pressure. And their bully boy press release was ill conceived and unworkable.

    This doesn't make much sense.

    The ONLY real punishment the board are proposing is to WITHDRAW their own licenses from people involved.
    They are also trying to prevent ALL 'professional' fights that are not licensed/approved by them - they always have opposed such fights within the UK. This is nothing new.
    This is what the board do.
    It's stupid to whine about it.

    If you say 'let's not recognize the board', why then whine about their threats to not recognize people who don't recognize them ? :lol:
    If you're going to ignore them, then don't cry when they take away their endorsement.

    It makes no sense. If they are so irrelevant and corrupt, then don't worry about them. If you are whining and worrying about losing a BBBofC license then you obviously DO valued them !

    "Best events to happen to boxing in decades" ?? Are you ****ing kidding ? :lol:

    Neither of these two heavyweights can fight much at all !
    Inside or outside the ring.
    It's maybe not politically correct to say so, but they come across as a couple of overgrown nancy boys.
    Frank Bruno would have chased them right out of the ring, and Bruno wasn't exactly a killer.

    That's the real mystery of the interest in this fight. These are mediocre heavyweights.
    David "Sore Toe" Haye is a downright embarrassment to the brave fighting tradition of the British boxer. His performance against Wladimir was a masterpiece in cowardice.
    If the british public had an ounce of common sense, he'd be laughed back in to retirement.
