I have a sneaky feeling you are a fanboy and not an insider as even the insiders are not happy with the way he lives(similar to how Frankie USED to).

Is pulling Brook down the only way you can defend Frankie?

There is double standards on here though, lets be honest. We're all guilty of it.

So he's avoiding Adnar And the hand again, sure it wasn't his toe?

Every time you've knocked Frankie, you've looked a tit, but still you persist. You are a gift that keeps on giving, cheers

James, you're going over old ground and it's boring. I haven't said that he's avoiding Adnan. But if you want to pretend that his promoter didn't pull him out of purse bids for the English title fight with him fair enough. You can also imagine him not pulling out of Beijing and not pulling out of fights with Witter, Jason Cook and Frank Horta.

Frankie has turned himself around - why do you want to go over this old stuff.

Good luck to Frankie. He's talented but I just don't rate him as highly as some on here. He'll claim the Lonsdale belt next month and then celebrate his 28th birthday.

And there are people on here that call Khans' career a wash out.

Don't need to defend Frankie, he is doing ok as he is. I think Brook's career has gone unbelievably stale over the past year or so. He still hasn't actually beaten anyone and the persistent rumours about his lifestyle, his withdrawals and inability to make weight must concern even his most ardent fans. I know they do his team. Brook won his Lonsdale in 2008 and appears no closer now to winning a genuine World title. Do you call that progress?

You clearly had something to get off your chest Mickey. Pugilists last post before your one above actually praised Frankie. Just seemed a forced in dig really.

As for any closer, he is the mandatory challenger for Alexander, so he will get his shot soon enough.
