    what a load of rubbish! Everyone knows its pat barrett that's been holding Zelfa back not frank, due to zelfas lack of amateur experience. also frank only has a contract to give him a few fights year, most of zelfas fights have been on either black flash or VIP shows.

    Barrett has actually stepped up his level of opposition recently with in Castillo, Jameson, and especially Osejo.

    They're very game lads who come to fight and well capable of upsets.

    Obviously considering that they came in his 14th, 16th, and 17th fights shows he's being brought along slowly, but that's more due to Pat than Frank I believe.

    Yes Pat is in control of guiding his nephew and quite rightly so. Pat knows the game well and if he thinks its wise to do a few more learning fights than the standard, then thats what it is. other fighters who have family relatives close to the game do/ did domething similar. Off the topbof my head i can think of Chris Aston and his son Tyrone Nurse.
    As youve pointed out, the level of opponent is getting better now and his last fight did answer a lot of questions uncle Pat needed answering.
    I dont think it will be that long before we see him in a title fight

    The eliminator with Clark will b a good indication of where his at and where he cud go. Hope that fight gets made soon. Date to b set on the board notices.

    Is it possible to edit the thread title to something more appropriate...it's very annoying as Barrett is not leaving FW

    Totaly agree...i expect him to come through Clark but cam see it been a real good fight. Clark will be coming to win and will famcy it. I do think Clark let mj ward into his head somewhat before their fight and this impacted his performamce somewhat. I dont think that would happen vs Zelfa.

    Yeah Clark as put some solid performances but just fell short at domestic level. If Barrett blows him away it wud b a massive statement. But also 10 tough rounds with a game fighter wud do him so much better.

    Yeah it held my cuz back 2 years with the process of purse bids agreements and waiting for board meetings. Hopefully poxon takes the fight with Bowen
