It could be argued that this is a concerted swerve by selby. Offering the fight when the lads getting married. I mean by analogy you dont offer a guy out when hes got a boken leg do you. Simply because hes not in a position to give it his all.
Offering warrington the fight when hes getting married is not much different. The guys got wedding preparations, stag nigjts and honeymoons to get through you simply cant prepare for the biggest fight of your life in the middle of all that.
Alternative is 1. Cancel wedding which is probably the greatest event in in warringtons life up to press and lose a boatload of money.
2. Try making the fight later for the year. Weddings out of the way, you havnt put yourself first over the biggest day for you and your other half. You get a full camp with no distractions.
This is a selby swerve from a guy thats been snapping at your heels for some time now.
I aint buying it. Clever work from team selby

Selby offered it for August 6th, Warrington said it was too close to his wedding, but he's now fighting a week earlier on July 30th.

Frampton fought Martinez three days before he got married and had no problems, didn't even have a mark on him in the photos.

Just checked it was two weeks after the Parodi fight in October 2013.

Ye mate i know hes out on 30 july.
I like a game of pool and if i go for a game this afternoon ill pick my cue up from the corner of the room head down to the pool hall andrack em up. Probably find a few of the local decent playets down there and there might be a few quid put down.
If i was to enter a top competition id be practicing 24/7. End of the day its still a game of pool.
Whats changed is my perceptions and consequently my apperception.
Same for warrington.

Warrington talked a good game. Always mentioning fighting selby this summer and what he was going to do with him. Then when it came down to it he shat it. Plain and simple. He deserves all the stick he get from this one. I am really looking forward to hear his explanation on the wedding situation!

:lol:

I don't know why but I'v always liked the phrase 'he shat it.'

The one everyone likes at the moment is 'he's got no arsehole.'

or

'His arse went.'

If you were meant to have a 'square go' when I was a boy and whoever you were fighting didn't turn up then they had 'shat it' :lol:

Yeah he said in inerviews he ready to fight Selby in the summer and will beat him. Then he can not fight Selby because it's a full month before his wedding so he will be to busy to train despite always saying he would fight him in the summer. He then decides he can now fight before his wedding just not against Selby. As Saingar said on Twitter it's not happening because of Warrington ducking. There are rumours Saingar and selby are not happy with Hearn. Not sure if,there is any truth behind them.

I thought Warrington looked well up for it. I think I may have been wrong now. He was offered the fight and shat out of it. Can't really make a case after that.

Wen asked about Selby is he really gunna say no I don't want the fight. Hearn has always said Elland Road wud b the venue to maximise the money both lads cud earn. With the footy club being unavailable and josh wedding they r making wat is the best option for them. Tho Selby is world champ Warrington is the draw and ticket seller. To much money for the fight not happen as long as both lads keep winning.

Let him have his wedding.

Warrington is fun - if he's fighting good opponents.

He's likely not quite ready - he did a few things wrong in his world class scrap with Amagasa and may be in need of some fine tuning.

They can arrange this fight for another date, stop getting antsy people.

I just get the feeling that he isn't quite ready. That he has a few things to work on and tweak.

He's been calling for the fight for at least a year now, been fighting at title level for 2 1/2 years and has 71 rounds of experience in major title fights, gets offered it in his backyard against the weakest champion in the division and turns it down because it's too close to his wedding, then fights someone else on the same day. Nothing to do with not being ready, when it was time to get it on he bottled it and shat himself because he knows how the fight would end.
