Sounded like it's still possible for April. Who knows.

If crowds come back, I think it’ll happen. Only way it happens behind closed doors is PPV IMO.

I like the Xu fight too, it’s a very good fight but is it even happening now?

It clearly ain’t happening with no crowd as Matchroom ain’t willing to invest in Warrington IMO. That just see him as a ticket seller.

So frampton is allowed a tune up but Warrington isn’t because that means we are being matchroom stooges?

Jamel Herring isn’t even a massive fight anyway? What casual is going to be pulled in by that fight?

It’s a far bigger fight than Mauricio Lara. It’s also costs a lot more than bringing over Mauricio Lara. Frank has invested in Frampton like he would have invested in Warrington. Hearn hasn’t and never did invest in Warrington to begin with.

But it's just Jamel Harring. Frampton had some crap fights before getting that one and that's not really a big fight. If he wins he gets to be a stepping stone for Shakur. That Xu fight is alright for Warrington imo.

It was a tune up fight. Frampton is fighting Jamel Herring and Warrington is snapping 18 months of inactivity to fight Mauricio Lara. There’s no comparison.

Stop being such a Matchroom stooge...

Josh has openly stated he’s willing to move up. Surely Frank and Bob would want to make Warrington vs Navarrete too.

Hearn only sees him as a ticket seller IMO, I think they’ll just milk the belt for as long as they can knowing the Leeds crowd will continue buying tickets.

Frampton had to move up to 130 though. Top Rank didn't even do much for their own guy at Featherweight.

The same frampton who fought Darren Traynor in his first fight during the pandemic? To be fair he is ranked as high as 357 on boxrec at the moment?

Any of the TR guy’s. Look what he’s doing for Frampton.
