    I can't see this being on the same bill.

    The only way to fulfill Gavin's contract is to stick him on a PPV undercard or as the main event.

    That's true, I wonder how longs left of that particular deal? If it was anything like Degale's then it should soon be up?

    This.

    This might be the "nail in the coffin" in Gavin's career.

    Apparently it was not long before he left Arnie.... which is what, about a year ago?

    I'm amazed that Allegedly hasn't tried to get him beaten and thus be able to release him. If Frankie won a hard fight it'd catapult him into the mix.

    At the minute, he's absolutely nowhere. A big name, who commands a big purse, yet brings nothing at all to the table other than ability.

    He's an easy fighter to avoid.

    Its a strange one but you're right in what you're saying, Frankie hasn't delivered and it's touch and go if he ever will, talent will only get you so far, if you haven't got the mentality to go with it, then it's always going to be a uphill struggle.

    I would expect a promoter/manager of Franks experience (as he so often points out) to be aware of that fact. Strange?

    That's my gripe with Frankie. He hasn't done jack yet acts as if he is the no.1 in the country.

    You're right, he is nowhere/commands a big purse & brings zilch to the table.

    This time next year he'll be retiring, you watch. All the skills but he's done nothing since he started and has had too many setbacks to get anywhere.
