    Not mentally strong enough to max out his potential imo.

    I have some concerns on his dedication but he has hired a nutritionist and is trying to improve on that aspect of the sport.

    Looked lackluster in his recent fights but I think at 140 with a good diet he can go far. He doesn't have any business at 147 in my opinion.
     
  3. Throw him in with Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao now.

    He’s a year older than Amir Khan FFS.
     
  4. Split decisions don’t exist.

    you dont do what he did at amateur level if your skill is not exceptional, the problem is the weight.

    it also means he might not be training like he should be, otherwise the weight would not be an issue, make no mistake if his head is right i say he goes on to world level!

    As of right now, that's really down to Frankie himself.

    he was looking for a new nickname recently because funtime was a little too close to the bone when it comes to him not taking this seriously.

    i suggested 'fat frank'

    we have matthew hatton on about world titles, im sure frankie can.

    he has got amazing natural talent, had some bad performances recently but there are underlying issues i think!

    He needs to get down to 135, he's actually quite fat at 140 and I think he's wasting time not fighting. Frank ****** pisses me off in that respect, Gavin should be fighting every month or every other month but **** all for ages. The fish eyed one is a twat who ruins potentially great fighters.
