Comments Thread For: Frank Warren Wants Top Names To Stop Avoding Liam Smith

i agree with Frank

Then bring him to the US and put him in a ShoBox undercard and see if he catches on.

I quite like Liam Smith but nobody is avoiding him.

Gmr Oh pull the other one Warren. No-one is avoiding Smith. He's just not that marketable and not that good. At a push he's maybe about the 10th light-middleweight in the world. Brook isn't interested because he's in a different division, and, frankly, is on a different, far higher, level.

The only guy you wanna fight is guys from a lower division. Warren is full of ****. Pretty sure the Charlo brothers would fight you, Vanes and Trout too. You rather fight bums and welterweights.

It's just so blatant, just stop lying. A) Even if some top names were avoiding you(which they are not), there's still about 87(basing on my quick estimation) fighters better than Radosevic and Kelly who Liam could've fought. Those guys are not even European level and it's embarassing for WBO to even rank them in top 15. B) They turned down Andrade before(Liam's trainer admitted it) and Frank found a way to screw Austin Trout who was number 1 in WBO and get vacant title fight with John Thompson. Then when Trout signed to fight Charlo, Frank was suddenly acting like he tried to make Trout fight for Liam. I don't know of any other offer to any other top 154 pounder they made. So who's excatly avoiding them? They are barely ranked top 10 with their paper belt. C) They offered Brook less than Brook had for Bizier, which is why they didn't get response - it was laughable. I love Boxnation and Frank puts on a lot of great shows, nothing against Liam either - but this situation is clear and they should just stop, now.

And he admitted that Lara and Cotto contacted him to fight him. so literally his only target is a welterweight, kell brook? and i've seen no indication thus far that kell is even aware of liam's existence

i saw liam admit that he turned down an offer from saul alvarez on the cassius and helder show too, so i'm wondering who exactly is supposed to have avoided him... And he admitted that Lara and Cotto contacted him to fight him.

Frank stop lying, Andrade and Lara tried to make the fight happen but you'll rather Liam Smith fights bums. i saw liam admit that he turned down an offer from saul alvarez on the cassius and helder show too, so i'm wondering who exactly is supposed to have avoided him...
