Don't like the bloke one bit, but he's handled the criticism this week well to be honest.

Yep his response can't be argued with tbh. EU rules means the BBBofC cant do ****. Warren knows this. I don't think it's good to undermine the BBBofC however they can't have any complaints. They banned Chisora without a proper hearing. They presented the evidence when he was banned not giving him an opportunity to review or respond. The BBBofC know that **** wouldn't hold up on appeal so they delay the hearing until June/July because of the public outrage. That could have stuck if they had said we commission 200+ fights a year and we're busy, need time to review etc etc so Warren does what he's done. Here's the thing though. I'm sure I heard the BBBofC have pulled an emergency meeting today to discuss the goings on. Go figure that out!

No other employer would get away with that so it's their own unprofessionalism that caused the issue. Warren has p*ssed all over them big time.

Handled it very well. I think it's all just blown out of proportion and a lot of politics and bs has been involved. I hope now people can just focus on the fight.
Also he's doing a great job with boxnation, i think we should all support that. Having a dedicated boxing channel is a dream and i hope it's a success.

I agree - Boxnation is something boxing fans have been crawing for. We all need to support it (I hope they make it such, that other Europeans can buy access to it over the internet).
I think there's too few boxing events, and GOOD of those in the UK these times.

If I was a fighter I would like a promoter like Warren. I know he has financially ****ed up a few fighters before (which all promoters do) but he has backed up Chisora throughout his innumerable transgressions. Good looking out for a fighter who is 1 - 3 in his last 4 fights.
