Flannigan only fought last week beating Troy James in a defence of his english in what was a very good fight by all accounts
farrell and his team were proper up for the fight cudnt agree venue so went to purse and coyles team went another route instead shame both evenly matched should b made after pf but doubt it as coyle fighting in nov for a micky mouse world title ( could get top 20 ranked in the world unbelieve really as he doesnt make boxrec top 10 lightweights in britain)
I'm from Hull and with him being from Hull it's good to see how he get's on but I agree the WBC internatioanl title is ridiculous. I think the reason Coyle's team didn't want it to go to purse bids is they had already started selling tickets for a fight on September 28th (postponed due to prizefighter) and they offered Farrell the fight for that night (I think) but I'm sure Coldwell Boxing wanted to stage the fight there selves and wanted to wait for purse bids, but Coyle's team wouldn't wait and went their own way and then Farrell entered prizefighter, but would travel to Bolton again or wherever to see Coyle V Farrell
their was a thread on here where both managers commented on that fight and the purse bid its an interesting read.:good
