    Feed them non-punchers.

    Seriously, Degale's last opponent would not have been able to crack an egg with a hammer.

      Write some hate lines for when they leave him so he can chat **** in his news paper articles.... lol

      Write a list of world class names he was gonna bring for them even though the last 20 fights were bums...

      Talk about Pricne Naz to all his fighters and how he got him to NY MSG even though it was Naz's self promoting tbh

        Feeds them easy opponents and generates a little bit of hype.

        For example, Brook facing Bienias was meant to be a big step-up. But we all know it wasn't really seeing as Witter finished the Pole inside a round or two ( can't remember ).

        DeGale, Gavin etc will have about 20 fights before going World level. Even though they should be up there at about 16/17.

            What pisses me off the most with Frank is how he offers one of his fighters a step up in class.

            They shine and the next fight he puts them against some bum.

            For example,

            Gavin schooling McDonagh. Why not put Gavin in with Daws? No, has to put him in with some bum called Tait.

            Watch DeGale fight some bum next.

              Exactly, hell Steve Saville was better than that Tait guy, and Saville was never in the fight.

                The only one out of the olympians that needs to brought upon slowly is Billy-Joe as he is still growing. But Frankie Gavin in particular is fighting so far beneath himself it's just embarrassing. Frankie Gavin could have beaten Lenny Daws on his debut.

                Degale is also going to get lost soon. Groves has already gazumped him for the commonwealth and will probably get the British too. He's just going to be retreading old George Groves opponents. Hayemaker have really stitched Warren up - the boring old ****.

                  Well basically, he don't let his fighters do what it do, y'nah'sayin. He give 'em soft punchers sometimes that can't really **** n' stuff and he don't let'em get that work in, y'nah'sayin'.

                  Like me, basically, I get in there, put on a show, please the crowd and I get to work, y'nah'sayin'. His fighters don't really do that. It is what it is, y'nah'sayin'.

                    The Frank Warren method for a good prospect:

                    Get him on tv, radio, newspapers as much as possible (good so far)
                    Put them in the ring with opponenets they can batter senseless
                    repeat process 25-35 times saying how well they are coming along
                    get a tittle shot against soft world champion
                    blame the fighter if the jump in class is too much for them
                    praise himself if it works
                    name of everyworld class person in the weight division as a posible next opponent
                    make sure they never fight said opponents
                    make up lies about them if they leave him
