    Frank is such a *****. Feel bad for Ricky Burns that he had almost an entire year wasted by this scum. Win or lose Ricky can come to America and make some money and maybe a legacy.

    Here's hoping Frank just cuts his losses and gets out of the business, doing us all a favour.

    No doubt Frank is hitting the whisky pretty hard right about now.

    Maybe now people will realise Ricky wants big fights.
    I'm hoping Oscar makes an approach.

    Frank was the one that was pushing for the Broner fight. Burns' management team was against it.

    Frank stood to make a far bigger score if Ricky had the two belts to bargain with.
    He said as much the other night.

    All I know is that I've seen several quotes from Frank pushing for this fight. Meanwhile, Burns' management team said they would need a life changing amount of money to take the fight. Burns' turned down the fight on another occasion, citing an inability to make weight as the reason.
