Frankie Gavin Made Mandatory For EBU

Post by Boxingcutsman »

Absolutely buzzing for Frankie, thoroughly deserved IMO gonna be great to see him hold the British/Commonwealth/European all at same time, and he's earned them aswell, not been given them,
old school :TU:

purse bids due end of April, gonna be a great fight, I can see it being top of the bill on the big show in the midlands in the summer, just what midlands boxing needs

Will Bundu take the fight when he's ranked WBC - No. 4 & IBF - No. 3? Hopefully.

He's not going to get a world title fight, none of the fighters in the US will face him and his promoters don't have the clout to force an eliminator quickly.

Yes, I'm led to believe it's a fight he wants before moving on, great fight IMO, 2 very good technical, quality boxers for a change, only 1 clear winner though for me, even has good has Bundu is.

Frankie wins this, takes Bundu ranking, then hopefully fights for WBO final eliminator, which will leave him WBO no.2, IBF no.3 & WBC no.4

Hopefully all the doubters can stop talking Shi t then about Frankie, and how he's so behind, and his career is taking too long to progress, cuz clearly he will be much further ahead than any of the others he's constantly compared to, in a lot less time, 5 years has a pro, Irish, WBO inter-continental, British, Commonwealth, European Champion, and top 5 with all governing bodies :TU:

Yeah, it's a very good fight for Gavin. The winner will be closing in on mandatory status for all four major world titles.

I wouldn't be surprised if Gavin gets a world title shot before Brook does.

That's a good fight, only seen bundu once and he looked top class, will be cagey, tactics will be vital, fingers crossed Frankie can do the bizz

This is probably true.

Rubbish, he is not that good and old, he went through rough patches with Purdy, for crying out loud, before wearing him down, Gavin would beat him, with a bit to spare.

How, when Brook is due to fight for one in the summer ? Gavin will win the Euro, then have to have a couple of defenses first. Brook is in pole position at present.

Frankie looks a big lad at the weight now, I thought he was boxing 'up a weight'; he'll take some shifting. The Bundu bout could be excellent boxing.

It might be a fight we see somewhere down the line. Chad Gaynor recently sparred Frankie and he said Frankie gave him a tougher spar than Brook, that's coming from a fellow Yorkshire lad. Technically Frankie is superior to Brook but Brook punches harder so it will be an interesting fight in the future.

Brook's been in pole position for about 3 years yet has moved nowhere. He may be due a world title fight but nothing's confirmed and there seems to be very little talk of a fight happening. No more frustrating career in UK boxing at the moment.

Gavin will fight Bethuel Ushona before/after the EBU fight. Somehow this guy is WBO#2.

Brook will probably get injured again.

Does he really want a world title shot? I think he prefers title eliminators and keep busy fights.

And who exactly did he beat for it? Better to look at who the opponent is, rather than the belt on the line.

Fair point, but his promoter tried to make the match with Frampton who took his time and then relinquished.

It's a good fight for Frankie but it's not even been made yet and some on this thread have already given him the belt. Good luck Frankie.
