    think bellew is completely over reacting here due to his agenda against a certain promoter (for good reason).

    plenty of fighters our friends and fight and go on to become better friends.

    sounds like allegedly is trying to cut some weight in his stable and save some cash both these two get paid very good money. still going to be a cracking fight and probally going to earn more against each other than any one else in the country. Id figt my brother if the money was right for BOTH of us

    So, Gavin has an undefeated fighter pull out of a fight with him, Has Witter outprice himself, and now might be fighting the Uncle of his Son instead? Wow..

    I'd sit down and think long and hard about his career if i was him, as it goes from bad to worse with nearly every fight announced for him.

    Any1 who thinks Arnie would push for such a fight is daft, but as a trainer he's told his fighter the situation an Ronnie jumped at it! Why it's become some huge thing is stupid there fighters they fight, there not particularly close so what's the problem!

    I never get why some people abuse the pro's that post here? Any pro's talking to the fans and giving their opinions is what most of us want so why abuse them? We don't need Tony and others leaving i.e. bunce was driven off by all the abuse from some fools so lance, lirva and co. shut the **** up if all your gona do is *****?!

    Joe and Richie became good friends after they faught. They knew each other before and did have the famous meal at the services with their dads but they were hardly mates at the time.

    I'm very close to Frankie,were like family. I know bomber, Arnie and Ronnie and they all know me. For me personally this fight makes no sense at all for either fighter. If the fight was put to them then neither would refuse it, there fighters that's what they do. I've watched them spar in arnies countless times, this fight really doesn't make no sense to me. I think with Bomber what people don't understand is that he's a passionate guy who looks out for the younger guys in the gym, I've been out on a night out in Liverpool with Frankie, me, bomber, Liam smith, Stephen smith and bomber has been drinking soft drinks watching out for us all, all night to make sure were behaved and ok, that's the kind of guy he is, caring. And he is right that also as well as professionally, the fight don't make sense morally. What ever the personal issues with Arnie are I don't know so can't comment on them. I've worked the corner with Arnie and I've been around him loads, I like him lots, he's a good guy and always been good to me. Ronnie is a diamond kid, grafts hard in the gym, quiet and shy and a beast in the ring, comes does his thing and goes, very respectful. This is one fight I hope doesn't come off to be honest. Frankie is my family, I'll always be behind him 100 per cent.

    It makes no sense on paper. Gavin fairly well established these days should be looking at the likes of purdy, Watson, and vassell... Heffron at 9-0 Should fight a name like mutley, David Barnes or another prospect like Godding.

    Both talented lads but when the division is jammed with talent like uk welters it seems totally unessacary... Strange fight to be suggested. I was surprised enough when they were looking at making the Liam Smith fight... Good times though some talented lads coming through.

    It's a strange one for two FW fighters, unbeaten and excellent prospects to be thrown together at this stage. He's not exactly known for taking risks is he and this is a risky fight for both IMO
