advertising advertising and advertising and then actually correctly promoting shows, if boxing promoters are prepare to spend their money or a make a reasonable budget for the advertising side of things, I really do not see what the fuss is all about.

there do seem to be problems with this 02 bill, but can't that be down to Warren perhaps putting his energies into Calzaghe-Kessler?

SN isn't, or shouldnt be, a one man show.

Can he not delegate tasks within the organisation?

THe 02 bill has been a shambles in terms of promoting the live gate.

It is reflected by the flaccid sales figures..

Great fights, but no hype.

Nail hit firmly on the head.

Many people on here go on about how Warren is the best Promoter in this country/Europe and that we should trust him, but my dictionary says that a Promoter is one who encourages the sale (of tickets and viewers in this case) by advertising.

Surely someone who puts on a bill such as this and then sits down smugly to reflect on what a good job he's done, without letting anyone know about it shoudl be called something else?

I could think of a few things.... :o
