Comments Thread For: Frank Warren and GLL Land 6 Fight Deal at Copper Box

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Leading boxing promoter Frank Warren has today (10th June 2013) announced a major multi-fight agreement for the Copper Box Arena with venue operator GLL, the UK’s largest Social Enterprise.

The deal will guarantee that world class boxing will be at the heart of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park sports offering and re-enforces East London as the spiritual home of boxing in the UK. It comes less than one month before the North of the Park re-opens to the general public for the first time since the 2012 Games.

The 7,000 seat Copper Box Arena was known as the “box that rocks” during the London Olympics and looks set to become one of the leading indoor sporting venues in the country. The agreement will see some of the best boxers and exciting fights hosted at venue and will offer up to 42,000 Londoners the chance to enjoy the sport first hand.

i thought FWP changed its name! or have they signed a contract with a company that doesnt exist...at least that might mean he won't have to pay them

That venue is only 1 mile from me. Happy days. Read this on the BBC and was like, yeah baby!

I am just over 1 mile from The York Hall too.

Are you thinking of Queensbury Promotions?

Thats legally run by his son, it's probably realistically ran by Frank though.
