Warren has a dig at Hatton Promotions

Spot on on both points :good

 

That is nothing new from Frank Warren, he's always having a go at fighters he used to promote and then who ditched him.

Haye, I reckon would rather give up the title rather than have a rematch with Valuev, whats he got to gain from a rematch?

 

Yeah read his comments in the Sun - never mentioned the Macklin bit though :think

 

"Warren in badmouthing rivals SHOCKER"

:roll:

 

First I've heard about Macklin and the £200k loss.

 

i don't see the problem ? People on here make a mountain out of a molehill with Warren ? Neither are particularly bad and both points are very valid

 

You mean like that phone call Calzaghe may have made to Kessler?

 

Shut Up !

We all know the phone call WAS made :deal

 

I don't think a man who promoted WBU fights so heavily has a right to criticise ANYTHING about boxing.

 

200K is a big loss

 

Does Valuev have a rematch clause with Haye? I hope not

 

Frank Warren talks alot of sense. Not nice stuff but he hits the nail on the head at times.

 

i believe so. the win was not clear cut in everyones mind. haye could certainly make it clearer cut. the brits just got carried away with the W.

it was an MD, it was controversial, it was incredibly boring, it could be better.

 

I think people a lot of the boxing fraternity were feeling let down with the performance because they saw that a 46 year old Holyfield did equally as good a job on the giant Russian, if not better.... barring the 12th round big shot.

The general public thought it was great because they were on the edge of their seats, how could such a small (by comparison) fighter beat such a big lump.

On the column, I think it's right what he says. Hatton would probably have had a better chance against Floyd in 2005 - there wasn't as much wear and tear on him as there was in 2007.... as for the weight issue I don't think it was as big a deal as many people like to make of it.

Hatton did the weight right and was in great shape for the fight, but ignored his corner and went hell for leather and was KO'd.

It's plainly obvious that Hatton was never in that league, but it would have been easy to hide behind a title and fight mandatories rather than to take his shot - and fair play to him for doing so.
