Ingrate means "ungrateful person" before you have to google it :D

Funniest moment 'So much for all this twitter bullshit, get a life... this is real' as he holds up his little stack of e-mails... He may as well have sent those offers via twitter, they would've been well inside the character limit. :confused:

Tony Bellew, what are your thoughts on this? Were you texting Frank saying how great he was only a few months ago?

Hypocrisy of the highest order.

I think I heard him offer a fight to Froch, then be sceptical saying "he's no legend" and "he got schooled by Ward" - well go and offer Ward the fight then!!!; He's much better than any of the BN British Fighters.

Nobody is signing with him anymore and he'll be lucky to have a handful of fighters this time in 2 years! Unofficially blackballed by anyone with any power in British boxing (and by the sounds of it from Golden Boy) across the pond also.

Ooof...fighting talk by Fwank!

Don't really know what to think about all that, he certainly seems bitter about some things.

As for showing all those emails, I worked with the long term unemployed once. They needed to demonstrate that they'd been applying for jobs. So they all applied for jobs that they were never ever likely to be considered for.

IF Warren did make these offers via e-mail and IF Bellew did tell Warren how great he is, why is Warren being so undignified about it? There is an ulterior motive here, without doubt. Why pursue it with such arrogance?

Pure marketing ploy IMO.

Strange how he didn't mention froch having the hardest run of fights in world boxing isn't it? Losing to a p4p'er isnt anything to be ashamed of aswell

The bit where he gets narked at George for leaving the emails in the car was pure Brent!

He is just an angry, bitter, little man. I hope every fighter under him watches this and appreciates his true feelings towards the fighters he so proudly represents.

To speak so dismissively about Carl 'Frock' is just ridiculous and disrespectful. A typical Fwank attitude of 'he's not my fighter, he's crap'.

There is a storm brewing! This going to be a war. Matchroom should get their best fighter in each weight and fight FW's best on a cross channel broadcast.

But of course, one of his own fighters would never get "schooled" by a p4per.

(But that's mainly because he wouldn't let them near one in the first place)

Is it true Froch has never earned a million pounds for a fight?

I'm sure he got around £900k for the Ward fight. That has to be his biggest.

I've seen the video and once again I wasn't offered anything! If I was offered then why didn't he state what I was offered like he stated what everybody else was offered! Froch was offered a million, Shumenov 300k and Hopkins emails, we're was mine?

As for ingrate? What should I be grateful for? Should I be grateful of being robbed of my Commenwealth title? The title I never gave up? Don't make me laugh, then saying I owe money? Look at the rules that we signed up to! According to them rules I don't owe him anything!

Text messages? Funny enough I remember getting text messages saying your getting paid tomorrow but then waiting months for my money! :( I've kept quite but would love to speak the truth, thing here is, someone is feeling the pressure and is getting beat at there own game!! I'm just trying to fight on a regular basis and earn a living! Something these leeches know nothing about!

I'm looking forward to the real TRUTH coming out and not lies! Its simple, I wanna box on a regular basis not once a year! I boxed in October and was left out the ring till late April! why? Pathetic but the truth will come out that's for sure. Oh yeah I'm still waiting for this offer? Tell ya what just make the offer public! They have my mobile,house number and email address! How much more is needed? Lies lies and more lies :shame:

I don't doubt that Warren offered Froch and Hopkins and Shumenov what he says he offered but the bottom line is those fights were turned down because Cleverly is himself not box office. If Mr Warren doesn't believe Carl Froch (who is arguably the UK's best P4P boxer at the mo) then what does that make Cleverly with his defences against people nobody has ever heard of? It's all well and good putting a fighter down because he is ranked no2 in a division but actually if the guy at no1 is in the p4p top 5 then you have to say fair play. It was a similar situation with Ricky Hatton, when Mayweather and Pacquiao were at 140 you have to consider Hatton to be the no2 guy at 140. That doesn't stop him being considered a legend in my eyes.

As it is who is Cleverly fighting? A guy who can't even be considered the best in Europe given that he lost to the current European champ a few fights back.

Don't let it get to you mate, and don't lower yourself to his level. I thought it was telling that he produced emails on the Hopkins, Froch and Shumenov offers and yet didn't produce any 'in writing' proof about an offer made to you, or to Eddie for you to fight Nathan. So if I notice that I expect most viewers with half a brain cell will see through it. If you keep winning and get yourself a title then the fight will become more and more likely so just ignore this shite is what I'd do.

In fairness you did seem very close to FW Tony, look at the photo session you had during the build up to the NC fight, you gave FW a kiss. I have never heard FW speak so badly of a fighter in all the years he has been interviewed. I know he has spouted BS in the past but to go on the record and say these things about you he must honestly think you were a nightmare to work with. Did you have to pay him anything? Is it more BS that this money was paid to him after the BBBoC threatened to take action against you?

Like I said I have never heard him speak this badly about a fighter :oo

I'm curious to know just what the figure offered to Hopkins was? Because he's a legend & has forgotten more than Cleverly will ever know & most, still knows a bit too much for him.

He's a legend & I hope the offer reflected that?... :box:
