Losses/gives up his case to prevent West Ham moving into the Olympic Stadium costing thousands in government money down the drain then promptly sells up...how long before Bazza decides he's had his fun annoying Frank and pulls Eddie out of boxing..?I give it maximum of 2 years...I'm just saying

Nah, Bazza's induction to the IBHOF has guaranteed the sweet science a friend for life. And with the money that Froch/Groves II pulled in I can't see Sky pulling it either.

Plus Fast Car's talking of moving into the American market,be good if some top fighters from over there who arent tied up contractually,signed with him having seen Froch/Groves at Wembley and fancied the chance to fight on some massive stadium and arena shows over here
Look at Rigondeaux,contracts away run out with TR,GB havent shown any known interest,in a fairytale world,Eddie would sign him up and bring him over here to showcase his skills,maybe even let him in with Quigg which would benifit him either way,i cant imagine Rigo sells massive numbers over there
I have a dream.......

Rigondeaux is an unreal fighter but cures insomnia with his style. Sure, he is that good that others fighters have openly said they would duck and avoid him. Quigg ain't fighting him soon or Frampton for that matter.

I bet Eddie has a poster of Simon Cowell on his bedroom ceiling.

Word to the wise. If you do young Hearn get it absolutely right. Wazza thought he did and look what happened ..... There is no "special relationship" with the big boys over the pond when it comes to boxing.

Please...the only time Hearn will be 'operating' in America is when he sends over a Brit Bum for a beating for peanuts

When did this horrible "just saying" phrase invade England? Here in the States it's said by brainless morons. Not having a pop at you, mate, but whenever I hear it I just think "Here's another dumb twat."
Was it on some reality tv show or something?

Can't see them pulling out, they like their niche sports, football a true rich man's game you need to pump in endless money and not want any of it back.

As I said before, Barry has only sent Eddie into boxing to irritate FW for a while. As he did previously he will pull the plug when he remembers that boxing is an expensive nuisance- just wait
