What fighters will B0xnati0n / BT have on their books?
Posted: 16 Nov 2016, 16:43
Great deal done by FW and fantastic for boxing fans, but through his long war of attrition against matchroom FW doesn't have many big names current signed to him and it a fat lot of star power.
Who do they have on the books and who is likely to be fighting on their channel that will draw in the casual punters in big number?
Tyson Fury is obviously one of the bigger names on the books if he gets back in the ring.
David Haye has apparently already got an agreement in place he has some of the star power needed.
Khan? another big name who will surely be on their radar.
Eubank Jr? Turbulent relationship with FW but he has no loyalties to matchroom either and he carries a large fan base.
Frampton? Again another fighter who doesn't get tied down to long contracts and openly thanked BN for showing his fights.
Billy Jo obviously but does he have a large fan base?
Liam Smith another decent fighter who will entertain but at present doesn't carry the star power needed to warrant BTs massive budget.
Degale and Groves? They are two fighter that need to be landed in my opinion not only for the potential rematch but groves has a huge fan base and degale brings world level legitimacy with him.
GGG he needs to be a regular, casuals know him and he is a status symbol.
