I recon with the dark lord adam booth behind curtiss' things come in 3's ' So a win for woodhouse is on the cards. D

Like I said at the start of this thread.
Gavin is ok but vastly overrated.

He's should fight Kel Brook for the 'Hype Championship'

But your nowhere near Groves level and Frankie is most definately at least Degales level. Boxing is so easy from the outside but when you climb through them ropes you are absolutely nowhere near his level. But hey ho god loves a trier and all that so fair play for having a go. Definately a backward step if they take the fight though

Well said Billy i cant see sky agreeing to this... One of our best prospects vs an ex footballer who lost to two journeyman type fighters.. I do wish you well tho Curtis

im not saying it should be a ppv main event but it would not be the worst undercard fight in the world who else is he gunna fight next another dead body who looks to survive? ill leave it at that ive stated i want the fight and i think i can beat him so ill be asking my manager to try and make it happen if it does great if he moves on to bigger better things i wish him well but while he is operating in and around the level i am i want to fight him and then ill know 1st hand if he is the next coming of jesus christ or just another hype job if it comes off ill let you all know

Mutley aint fought in over a year and is hardly the Mutley of a few years ago, been stopped quite badly few times, got stopped heavily by Mihatu Mutu not too long ago all factors that made him ultra cautious.

Learning fight for Gavin, still only his 10th fight, yes it wasn't the best fight but people on here making a bit too much of it I think.

Fairplay to Curtis atleast he wants to test himself against the best, can't knock that at all. Also remember Curtis started boxing very late (after excelling at another sport professionally) to even get to the level he has is superb.

It's all well and good wanting to test yourself against the best but Curtis is coming up short well below the best, and until he wins some of those type of fights I don't think he needs to be calling Frankie out. I like his attitude, but I just think there needs to be a little more than just talk. This all started by Curtis talking, then he got beat, said he'd stop talking, now he's opportunistically jumping on the bandwagon following a below-par Gavin performance. Even if Gavin fought like he did Saturday night, I don't think Curtis would win a round.

I might be a little harsh here but I'm getting to my limit on fights being made and billed over a grudge of late. I could take the Bellew Cleverly presser, I could take the ringside Fury-Chisora scrap, but Murray and Mitchell theatrically gesticulating in the ring the other night was my final straw.

Mutley's confidence has completely deserted him nowadays. The big-puncher who gave such a brutal war with Anderson a few years ago one Thursday night, is no longer to be seen.

Working as a Bin man, this was just a purse to take the kids on holiday- and not a fight he was going to lay on the canvas for.

Matchmakers need to heed a fighter's form and not just their name when making a fight for 8.30pm on PPV - because this was perhaps the most boring fight I'd ever had the pleasure to sit through.

Frankie needs fighters who believe in themselves and are coming to win. Saturday's fight didn't benefit the lad, more than half hour cardio on a stepper machine...

... And was equally as interesting!

FW needs to give him a name next. Enough's enough. Otherwise he'll be stunted.

Agreed.

Woodhouse would have put up a far better effort than Mutley did (or shall we say didn't ) on Saturday.

I think a lack of motivation could be blamed for the performance, he looked flat as a pancake from round 1, and bored as hell. Warren should just stick him in with whoever and see how he gets on.

I've said for over a year now that we won't see the best of Gavin until he's in with someone that will either try and take his head off or has a realistic chance of beating him.

Lomax came to win, Gavin looked great. Mutley came to do nothing, Gavin looked crap. No co-incidence.

Frankie is older than Kell Brook - do you seriously think he's better ?

Good lad Curtis, top respect for your attitude.

I have no doubt that you`d give it a good go and at least try to win the fight. I do have to say that Gavin would probably have too much skill for you, but I for one would look forward to it. What we as fans want is someone prepared to give it a proper go. Hope it happens.

Cleverly v.s. Bellew
Fury v.s.Chisora
Gavin v.s. Woodhouse

'It's Personal'

I'd buy a ticket.

Frankie Gavin had a bad day at the office, all fighters get them. He is the best fighter in Warren's camp.

Better than Cleverly?

curtis woodhouse with notice of the fight would be the biggest test of gavins career so far imo,gavin is a class fighter we cannot deny this but he hasnt been tested and getting fighters who havent fought for 13 months or fighters with a weeks notice isnt going to test gavin so thats my reason why i think curtis would be the best test so far,he is a game fighter who comes to fight not to survive so let the fight happen,arnie you can make this fight happen so pull some strings and lets see gavin vs woodhouse at 140lb

i think gavin should give kell brook the chance to regain the title they took off him

well said curtis people forget if you were in sport to make money you could of stayed as a pro footy player and made upto 5 grand a week (guesstimate) but instead you choose to make your name in pro boxing and make as little as 2grand a fight(guesstimate) hats off to you mate and i hope you get this fight

I wasn't that impressed with Frankie on Saturday, but I guess boxing with the flu/cold isn't exactly easy.

Hopefully his level of competition continues to step up.

Wow, finally someone with some sense in this thread.

Franki gavin is a quality fighter and ppl writing him off and saying he is going no where is unfair on this performance, there are times in a boxers career they have to fight when not feeling 100% and franki did that and came through, he will have learnt a lot about himself in that fight and I think he's defenetly on coarse for bigger and better things at light welter,well done franki and arni for goin through with the fight and doing a professional job. On franki been hype along with kel I think they are both top fighters and promising british fighters,we need to get behind them not dis them

Yh but ur no groves are u his undefeated u lost to two lads with losing records an ur gonna lose to me come july but this time ur getting stopped u clown I don't think I can get any worse than Saturday but that would still beat u you want a payday or just a decent name on ur record cause as of yet u ent had any an u still lost fights

I like frankie a lot but that was a step up in class and the fight was terrible to watch boring has fu,ck,Needs to box better then that if he is going to set the world a light.

if frankie on his worst performance can win every round against a former british champion at 147lbs then imagine what his going to do at 140lbs when his at his best, curtis woodhouse will come to survive too, because if his game plan is to bully or out box gavin then his in for a beating !
