    And that's why Frank is still at the York Hall and Eddie isn't. They are two different animals.

    Frank is the daddy in Riyadh while Hearn carries the bags.

    You seem to take what i say personally for some odd reason. Eddie doesn't do grassroots. Frank does. Eddie has nada idea what he is doing on that level where Frank could see talent in a dingy gym. Hence me saying two different animals.

    Yet Hearn was the man responsible for grassroots female boxing and now they are all over UK cards.

    For example Hearn took Terence Harper from the Chippy to World Champion within 8 fights and now recently she was headlining a Matchroom Card in Sheffield.

    Frank Warren controls and decides a lot in relation to Saudi. He has the final say in terms of fights.

    I know he had an expert removed from Saudi / TV that he didn't think was competent.

    You will be surprised how much influence Frank Warren has on Riyadh Season.

    Nothing wrong with York Hall.

    Saturday’s attendance for Catterall v Prograis would fit nicely in there.

    Mike Costello? Notice that he wasn't present for Bivol v Beterbiev.

    Dead curious who it was now. Figured most of the big names have been on at least one of these last two shows so would’ve been before that.

    Gareth A was around the first couple wasn’t he, but not for a while, maybe it was him? Spill the beans @Astro!

    Nope.

    I will not reveal the person's name, but I can reveal that it was one of DAZN's experts.

    No big drama - how are you anyway and when are you going to start posting the boxing schedules again?

    It would be a perfect match and for once the arena would look full to a Matchroom UK card :)

    Didn't say there was. I was merely stating that Frank's bread & butter is coming through there that's all. Eddie was the man with the better platform, so you went there to crossover. Frank builds fighters. Eddie doesn't posses such skill was merely my point.
