    I'd also wager that he's never put businesses into administration

    His more than likely not going to sign Northern Irish fighters and there also probebly not going to sign with him either, considering that Frampton said Sky favor English fighters

    Fred Evans stock has dropped since getting stoped in the WSB

    Joe Joyce got stopped at the worlds and euro , looked good before that but still learning his trade and as i said no top class amateur his decent though

    Bateson still young and not doing bad , but i doubt Hearns is going to sign someone who could compete in the minimumweight division

    Baister is 29 this year and has never medaled at a major tournament so i wouldnt consider him a top class amateur ,he should go pro though

    Taylors a good fighter but i think he will wait to the next olympics

    And Selby has the potential to earn more as a pro but you have to factor his got a gaurenteed salary as a amateur, his training and coaching is paid for and he gets to train in world class facilities

    His travel,food is subsidies and all his medical cost and physio's are paid for.

    Is Selby goes pro and gets a really bad injury that keeps him out for a year then he has nothing to fall back on and would have to foot the medical bill himself

    On paper he would make more as a pro but when you factor in all these costs and the fact he will be competing in a lower weight division theres not much in it
