Comments Thread For: Lee Selby Voices Frustrations At Not Landing Big Fights

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

It's been over two years since Selby shone at London's O2 Arena dismantling Evgeny Gradovich to take the Russian's world title from him. Since then it has been a period of frustration for Selby in his boxing career. Defences against Fernando Montiel, Eric Hunter and Jonathan Barros have been painfully easy for him at times, and have never seen him give a performance that is perhaps awaiting one of the other champions at his weight, or Carl Frampton.

Weird, his brother said yesterday a "massive" fight will be announced in the next couple of days

Selbys adviser hamon has stalled his career

Frampton is having cold feet because he knows selby is huge at the weight and a threat

It's annoying as hell to see selby side lined he's a great fighter just needs to be given a chance to show it

Speaks volumes when none of the other champions want to pick up another belt

I guess Warrington will be next I hope

Selby made the error of signing with haymon, should have stuck to british soil, as much as everyone dislikes hearn, if your winning and bring in the crowds he almost always gets you the big fights. Selby has wasted last few years doing nothing through that one bad career decision

It shouldn't be complicated for Selby getting getting big fight since all of the champions outside of Oscar Valdez is signed to Al Haymon.

I could see Selby vs Russell Jr. next. Hopefully that happens next since both don't have opponents lined up.

Where does Russell Jr stand at the moment, injured or anything? If Selbys brothers saying hes about to announce a massive fight, can only really be Russell Jr, Frampton, or Quigg on the Joshua/Pulev card. Everyone else is busy that would be a big fight

Neither of them at 126 sound interested in unifying

[bluebeam]

Gary russell jr pressed Selby about a fight to his face earlier in the year and Selby was non committal.

it was at the Framptonvs Santa Cruz rematch

[HI-TECH Boxing]

I almost forgot about Selby that's how irrelevant he's been.
I think they should have Selby against Russell.
Since it seems like Santa Cruz and Mares want to rematch, which just seems pointless to me at least. I would prefer to watch new fights.

Make it happen Russell Jr. vs. Selby unification fight.

Who is Selby working with these days? Promoter? Manager?
