Frank Maloney
Frank Maloney
Does anyone know hows Frank doing these days? It been a year since he promoted his last show at the Echo Arena. I would like to see him back as a tv pundit he was pretty funny when he was with Bunce in the studio.
Re: Frank Maloney
He retired back in October 2013. Said he had fallen out of love with the sport. Although I suspect multiple heart problems and Price getting knocked out twice didn't exactly help.
Re: Frank Maloney
Last i heard was that he was working as a Christmas Elf in a department store grotto.

Been told he masquerades as a Leprechaun at the weekends with a crock of gold at end of the rainbow.G0mez wrote:Last i heard was that he was working as a Christmas Elf in a department store grotto.
Re: Frank Maloney
Always pleasant and approachable , but Sutherland report left a sour taste and rightly or wrongly exposed the very dark side of the sport
Re: Frank Maloney
Spoke to him at a Huddersfield show about all things boxing & Frank was generous with his time even though he was promoting the show.
A decent man from my experience with him.

I have no doubt that outside the extreme pressures of boxing, Frank is probably a fairly affable individual.Wales wrote:Always pleasant and approachable , but Sutherland report left a sour taste and rightly or wrongly exposed the very dark side of the sport
However, having had experience of him within boxing, I certainly would not say he is a gentleman.
I am sure someone will correct me if i am wrong, but I believe he said something not quite right to antagonise Colin Dunne at some boxing dinner that led to a scuffle.

Exactly everyone has there own opinion on Frank................................
As a Person he is a Good Man and I hope he's doing good.
I'd say the Majoity of people has has dealt with him through Boxing (when Money is involved) wouldn't say he is a Gentelman but at the end of the day he is a Business Man and he Will always Come first..

Re: Frank Maloney
im not a Maloney fan...infact some of the little bits I have heard about him from people over the years make him sound like a right vicious little fcker..never meet him personally though so maybe im being unfair.

The situation I have described, which may well be one of many, had nothing to do with money, and was based on completely ungentlemanly behaviour.spudder56 wrote:You can only speak from your own experiences mate but I stick by what I said in all my years in boxing I always found him to be a gentlemanSlim Cockney wrote:I am sure Rolf Harris, Max Clifford and Andy Coulson said the same thing.J wrote:why dig up old poo?

I may not be popular in pointing someone's shortcomings but this particular situation was wrong and in the public glare.
That mixed in with my own sour experience with him proves a saint he ain't.

Re: Frank Maloney
I heard he allegedly tried to use some alleged dirty little tricks against Haye & Booth to try and scupper them when they went off on their own to Setanta due to his bitterness that left him after the Mormeck fight..

Re: Frank Maloney
I'm sure Frank isn't a saint, but frankly who is. We all have our moments where we do things we shouldn't, some more than others. I've only ever met him once, he seemed ok to me, I'm sure there's others here with good and bad experiences.
What I will say is he was definitely in love with the sport, and worked hard to promote good shows.

If it was said in an inquest or court, it is covered by privilege, so you can report anything they say, true or false.
