    Should more be done to put Dave Allen on the right path?

    I feel Eddie Hearn can see the potential in the lad, but he doesn't quite do enough to help him along. His training camps are rudimentary and he seems to just be enjoying the limelight most of the time without being fully motivated. If Eddie really cares, why not get him in with a trainer like Don Charles or Peter Fury, and help him develop and grow as a fighter? I think it's too early in his career to be having "win or bust" type fights already. He is young enough to take 5-10 low pressure fights while perfecting is craft and working on stamina and conditioning etc. He needs to be in a proper organised camp to do this. C'mon Eddie!

      Think that's what theyre planning on doing. He turned down the Kuzmin fight, wants to give things a proper go. Apparently fighting Samir Nebo on the Newcastle card.

        He should be fighting David Price on that card why is Kuzmin on the card, this would have better for the english fans exciting. Price vs Kuzmin is just a gross mismatch.

            I assume World of Boxing got 2 spots on the card as part of the deal.

              Actually that's who I thought he was fighting, couldn't remember the name, someone on Twitter saying Nebo.
