Comments Thread For: 'World's leading promoter' Frank Warren aiming to promote US shows with new DAZN deal

[M312]

Wonder how his partners at top rank will react considering they have an exclusive deal with espn

Do ESPN even show Queenbury cards now?

Well done Frankie me ole mucka! If any promoter from back home can do it, it’s BrickTop. I’ll make sure to support his shows

They want to get into the American market with somebody else. Not American fighters. They have billions for zombies and Jr's and geezer wars, but got a limp purse for Boots vs Norman. Poor Boots. Norman will do better for telling Eddy to kick rocks.

So yes this here. If frank wants to be successful he will have to work with American based promoters which shouldn’t be hard to do since he is a respectful type. He shouldn’t have any issues working with others as long as there is mutual respect. I hope Haymon works with him. I hope arum continues to work with him. Warren is exactly what dazn needed and I applaud them for admitting they needed his promotion. If this happens I myself may finally get dazn

Thanks for the historical perspective. I see the rigid stand-up tactics of the British redcoats losing to the fluid hit-and-run guerilla tactics of the American minutemen. A bit of a mixed metaphor for ya.
However, there was one British invasion that truly was hugely successful: Rock and Roll in the 1960's and 70's.
Have you ever noticed how many British singers seem to lose their accent when performing?

Let’s be real clear and honest. The so called “British Invasion” was by British groups who mimmicked black American music styles and singers, later done again with “blue eyed soul” in the 70s and 80s. This was no different to how Elvis Presley was received by white yanks. He sung in a black style and moved and danced in a black southern style and that was as acceptable like no one else who had done it before with pale skin.

I could see Top Rank fighters being able to do deals with Frank Warren, who is allied with Arum.

"American market with no Americans"? ok....let me know how that turns out!

They kept Norman out and brought in Karen.

He has two American fighters already i believe. I'm interested to see if his cards have the same terrible pacing in the US. Not sure if that will fly here.

Not sure tbh

Good news.

As someone who hates all sports other than boxing having a dedicated boxing app with both Matchroom and Queensbury cards works for me.
