Francis w@rren seems to have upset someone in their stable going from a few comments on twitter. Anyone know what he's done or said?

Frankie should go with Matchroom to be honest if the opportunity presents itself.

Is Gavin talking about FW or a fellow boxer ? Inconclusive.

Why?

Hearn is such a boring promoter. He's ruining British boxing.

I'm not a huge fan of his but I think he'd probably get more opportunities with matchroom. Also there could be the possibility of the Brook fight if he got a good win under his belt in the meantime.

Gavin just had a world title eliminator against Bundu. He lost, that's not Warren's fault.

Hearn will just have him fighting Argentinian journeymen for a couple of years and then send him over to America to fight Thurman.

Agree, the crap this man is serving up is a joke. I have no idea where he finds some of these opponents. Greedy fake tanned knobhead.

Nonsense on this thread. Does Eddie pay his fighters. Are they happy? Their promoters tan status is surely irrelevant compared to that?

Unless something's been deleted, all I can see is that Francis has said they will be back in the Midlands, but they'll have to see what happens in the Skeete fight first. That seems to have been taken as a suggestion that the loser of that fight will be cast to the wayside and the winner will get the big backing from, when to me it seemed more like a promoter avoiding favouring either of his fighters.

It's a bit rich for Frankie to be going on about loyalty IMO, they stuck by him when he was going through all his problems a few years ago when it would have been easy to let him go.

Yeah, didn't he pull out of a few fights and all that kind of malarkey?

Agree. But when its posted straight after multiple retweets of people slagging Francis off for his comments, seems a bit suspicious
