For starters why is W@rren not dedicating a half hour documentary to him for the channel and his youtube page? His past, where he grew up, what he likes etc.
Flanagan is a Man City fan, why is he not being paraded on the pitch before title defences? Why is W@rren not handing out flyers to fans on match day? Its 40 or so thousand mancunians in one spot surely he can grab a couple of thousand for his show to support one of there own.
I see building a profile as a 50/50 thing some blames on W@rren but some blame also has to go on Terrys shoulders aswell...

have you heard flanagan speak? it's hard to see him carving a career out on the after dinner circuit when he hangs the gloves up. love him as a boxer but some people just dont/cant express themselves verbally. maybe im wrong and he's at home reading dostoevsky every night but he sounds like he is as thick as pig sh1t and trying to make documentaries out of him will only draw focus to that.

Hearn manages to promote Scott "2 planks" Quigg no bother

Langford/Sheedy was close I had it a draw,Langford's work rate seeing him through, he did fade badly though I thought,especially seeing as he's known for his engine, he looked the more relieved to hear the final bell,Sheedy should be kicking himself for not getting to work sooner,far too many times he went walkabout, if he'd started a round or 2 earlier he might have got Langford out of there

Flanagan is only ranked in the Top 10 because he got a title handed to him. If not for that he wouldn't even be Top 10, and he won't be Top 10 as soon as he fights an actual Top 10 contender and gets his ass handed to him.

Looking at his interview after he seems happy with this standard of fight

I'd have thought if he wasn't happy with the low key opposition and pay he'd be kicking up a bit by now .

You've only got to look at how many people have posted on this thread tonight , it makes you wonder if the public really are that bothered about him.

Don't think he'll ever be a big draw ,which is a shame and I think has more to do with how he's promoted .

its the same with most of W@rrens fighters, there is no personality. Nobody knows anything about them so they are hard to relate to.

He could learn from Hearn/matchroom/skys hype factory.

They are a platform for all sports yet they find space on the schedule for documentaries, the gloves are off type things, weigh ins on SSN.

Warren has a dedicated boxing channel. Ok it's not accessible to all fans but there's surely more ge can do to push a guy that's now an established champion
More people know about Luke Campbell, Britains 3rd best lightweight, at best

I recall a League Cup game last season (or maybe the year before) v Everton they had him and Bellew on the sideline to discuss the game, and Flanagan v someone that got probably cancelled.
