Is it just me?

Or does allegedly seem to have gone very quiet in the wake of Audley's successful return to this country. There's certainly no movement on his website. Did he have his regular column in the NOTW yesterday?

Why would that be? Oh you mean Audley winning the world title and everything.

no thats not what I meant, its after Frank has publicly and unfairly ridiculed Audley at every given opportunity through every medium possible, papers / tv interviews etc etc for the past two years, that Sat night was a decent performance. (Especially after Skelton looked so average against a shot Julius Frances).
Perhaps it has now entered Frank's mind that Aud has more potential , earning capacity and is better than the heavies signed to him. So he thought he would keep quiet.

Fairly logical wouldnt you say...?

and no-one thinks he has won a world title not even Audley.

I reckon it might take a bit more than a win over Rachael Hernia to shut Warren up me old mucker.

Warren would give anything to have Audley on his books. Why else has he constantly belittled him? The old saying: if they don't nag they don't care, comes to mind.

Oh yes. I remember when Audleys 10 fight deal with the BBC was up.
Suddenly "Fraudley" became "Audley". My recollection was the Frank was talking about how they had nice phones calls etc.
Hw was Manouvering, simple as that.

Good post. Frank signed up every potential Harrison rival in this country and even dug out a 37-year-old ex-K1 failure (Matt Skelton) to try and lure the ex-Olympic champion closer to his promotional clutches.
Now Audley has been clever and said he intends bypassing his British rivals for a European title shot. Poor Frank is left like Don King in the 80's. With a load of fat old heavies.

I get the impression that Audley will do to Warren what Lennox did to Don King for all those years....

yeah be justice in a way.
I dont like to hear people being bad mouthed for alterior motives other than performance to be honest. Unless they really are proper tosspots outside the ring and not signing for a promoter doesnt justiFy that but thats just my preference.
