    Gavin has always looked too small for 147lb

    Burns a 140lb Champ from the same promotional outfit gives him every motivation to drop back down.

    A well motivated Gavin could make it a 50/50 fight

    Gavin refuses to diet properly to get down to 140 so it's a pointless discussion.

    Dead right. I managed to have a chat with him at a show a couple month ago.
    And imo as well as most others hed do 140 easy. I asked him about going down to 140 he replied that he just cant do it.

    Ricky already beat the **** out of Kev 'Well Prepared' Mitchell. I'm sure he'd have no problem with Frankie 'Well Motivated' Gavin.

    The more motivated the opponent = The better Ricky fights.

    Win, draw and a loss to a top five p4p so you're saying not too bad then.
    For a change we might agree with you.

    He might not be a true welter.. but it's obvious he can't make 140 either..

    Didnt Frankie come on here a while back saying he cant get back down to 140?

    Agree though hes far too small for Welter
