I'd also like to see the video footage. I'm not sure it would be conclusive though as it was taken with a small HD handheld job on a tripod that was situated a good 10 feet behind the officials table toward the rear of the hall by the wall.

i will upload video tonight which was recorded from ringside of the nasser vs jamie ball fight to show there was no clash of heads, it was a left hand which caused the cut above nassers eye!!

this just sums you up, why would you be watching FG whilst your son is fighting in a close fight

you clearly are bothered about frankie if you noticed he had left towards the end of round 3, maybe because it was a boring fight

I think all the hype is over looking that this a great fight for Midlands/ Birmingham boxing.
We have a lot of interest in the fight as Naz has been using the gym as a base camp for his training and has done some sparring with gym Personal Trainer Tom Breese who is a huge, talented south-paw and undefeated MMA fighter.
Frankie's main sparring partner is Tom Langford who again is another Personal Trainer at the gym. He is a fantastic talent and no doubt will be making Frankie work hard in sparring sessions.
From the bruises both Tom Langford and Tom Breese have been wearing to work there is no doubt both men have prepared well. We would like to remind everyone that this fight is great for the Midlands scene, so support it and enjoy it for what it is - a great clash of two undefeated fighters.
Good luck to Naz and Frankie.

For anyone else if you watch the video, freeze it just after the punch lands, you will see no blood , then again after the heads come together then you will see the blood.

It's now become bitter.
Didn't think Frankie wanted it to go that route but there you go.
The bickering in this thread is ridiculous.

I predict that they will probably be friends again after the fight (not too dissimilar to what happened with Curtis Woodhouse).

Nice articles btw. Good to see both sides of the coin in quick succession.

I think what he meant is a big Warren show, like Bellew in liverpool, tickets in the thousands, like Kel in Sheffield, but I guess if you are averaging 700 it's a good start.

In the middle east they have massive stadiums and yes it is true, when Nassem went to yemen after he become champion he had over a million people waiting outside the the airport, stretching a few miles long, maybe they have more passion over there.

We originate from the Yemen, Al Harbi is one of the biggest families in Yemen, Saudi Arabia and some other middle eastern countries and because the then president of Yemen agreed to set it up with the Professional boxing federation of Yemen, plus ticket prices are not as expensive as in britain, I mean when I used to train Nasser near the beach early in the morning over there big crowds used to gather just to watch. We had to sell a lot of tickets for the Ball because our purse was very high, so you are wrong there.
