Frank Warren Calls Out Eddie Hearn

[KTFOKING]

“Forget the past. Don’t focus on the difficulties and let’s get on and make the fights people want to see.” 👀

“I hope this honest proposal is taken at face value and not dismissed.” 👍🏻

“Now is the time to put up or shut up.” 🥊 https://t.co/9TzzdR0rpC

Which, if any of these match ups do we see in the next six months?

Some cracking fights there. My favourite is Yarde vs Buatsi followed by Chisora vs Dubois. Buatsi and Dubois to win.

I got that wrong. Whyte vs Dubois is a good fight too but if Whyte beats Povetkin he should get his shot at Fury so I don't see that happening.

its dubois vs whyte...and chisora vs joyce...id need to see what whyte looks like vs povetkin to see if i even care about dubois vs whyte...i dont rate povetkin much at this point anyway...but would wanna see what type of shape whyte is in

buatsi vs yarde is prob one id wanna see most too....

andrade vs williams...-sigh-...its never going to get better for andrade

[Marchegiano]

Pretty cool if for nothing but a slightly more original way to pressure Eddie than just talking ****.....this **** talk had a cool promo pic.


Don't dislike any of these fights.

Reality is we all know Eddie Hearn has sky, more money and the better marketing campaign. It’s not Eddie who needs to compromise - it’s actually frank. He has to let fighters go to sky , even on a one fight deal - to allow them to progress. It’s pointless him calling out matchroom because in all honesty we have seen Eddie more willing than most to fight other promoter fighters when the terms are right - franks almost never going to be able to offer a better deal to a fighter than he can himself.

I think in reality Eddie would take the fights he knows his guys would win and just make offers to the rest of Frank's stable when their contracts are up.

[Citizen Koba]

Damn. Either Frank is very desperate or very very confident in his boys. Dude hates Barry's little boy with a passion that's rare to see - and actually quite refreshing - in this sanitised age.

Some real nice fights to be made though, if these two somehow find a way to work together it can only be good for British boxing.

By far the most likely scenario I reckon.

Sky's non-PPV budget isn't all that. In reality, it may actually benefit Hearn giving a few of these fights to BT Sports and letting Warren pay for them. Or maybe they can trade a few fighters. But fights like Whyte/Dubois is certainly not happening and no reason for it to happen if you are Whyte or his team. Some other lower level fights are intriguing though and it may make sense to entertain this.
