    The IBF are squeaky clean because they have to be. They still have an FBI assignment since the scandal from back in the day. Thats the reason they are always so quick to enforce their rules & strip more worthy champions eg Calzaghe, Taylor (after he won the unified title from Hopkins) & Margarito. Whether they have a subconscious bias towards American fighters is a matter for debate.

    That doesn't surprise me. Frank Warren is such a ****.:twisted:

    Actually it was quite funny to watch Warren wipe the floor with the old farts at the BBBofC. The only reason they wouldn't give Warren a license was because Micky Duff told them not to.

    So threatening to create a rival governing body was the answer was it? I'm sure there was other action he could have taken.

    He did, he threatened them with a restraint of trade lawsuit and they folded, but Warren had already gone with the WBO by then and the damage was done.

    To be honest talking about the WBO & Warren just gets me wound up.

    Change of subject, how would you feel about a Brit forum meet of some kind? There seems to be a fairly even split between north & south so we could pick a suitable event to attend. Doesn't have to be a massive fight.

    I wouldn't expect you to. You guys are just not worth the cost of my Business class Iceland Air flights, even the discounted versions I get

    Unless MasterCalzaghe or CHJ was to be there :yep
