The Frank Warren Express !!!!!

I can't argue with this mate TBH.

I think i am more pissed off about the whole loss and the way it happened. IMO regardless of his previous record, surely survival instincts are taught to a fighter.

Mind you, watching the fight against Johanneson maybe this shouldn't be much of a surprise??

Who knows.

 

Its hard to teach survival instincts because they are just that, instincts. Even a great like Tommy Hearns struggled to learn how to survive when he was in trouble.

 

Whoop whoop on the Frank Warren Trawler....

 

Yeah, but holding on when hurt badly. Should be a given.

 

Check out Hearns fights, even in his late 20s against Kinchen and Roldan he still hadn't got the knack.

 

will do, thanks :good

 

very good point, and it was as much what katsidas wasen't allowing him to do. thats why he's champ , doesen't give you a split second to get your act together.

 

Yep, taking more risks as well and his fighters are always on TV. By far the best promoter in the land. Go Frank!:woot

 

Wash your tongue Tony!!!:nut

 

Id agree with this pretty much word for word ................ :good

 

Without Frank we would have a lot less world champions. He pays the best and can give the best opportunities. So in terms of money and opportunities which is surely what most fighters want Frank is the man. There are aspects of his busness model i dont agree with but British fighters would be a lot less prominent if he didn't exist.

 

easily the best promoter. was dissapointed with the whole card on sat. mainly because of the way mitchell lost. there was alot of earlier stoppages that came far to prematurley on the un-televised bill

 

I thought Warren had done very well with his two current big names. Cleverly for example has progressed from commonwealth, to british, to european so far (which for me is how a fighter should progress, none of this international title bollocks).

As for Mitchell, I think he was progressing very well also. From Commonwealth, to British at super-feather. I even think the Walter Estrada fight was a very good one as generally the man only gets beat by the best, he's a good measuring stick.

Don't know what happened after that fight with the year long lay off and inactivity etc. Was he injured?

Either way the lay off probably contributed to him moving up in weight. Prescott was a good test at lightweight and further progression should have been made from there. I think that fight blinded a lot of people, Warren included.

But on the whole I think their progression has been quite good, or at least not as bad as someone like Duddy or Chavez jr.

 

operation on his hand:good

 

katsidis isn't a big name in australia he gets no attention so i dont think he is a bigger name.
