Will sell well in PPV.I think he (particularly on his debut) will draw like the superstar he is in the worked world no matter who is put against.He has the chance to bridge the gap between wrestling and MMA and actually do well and become the biggest star in MMA despite being 36 and having no real shoot experience Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

B1872 20,442 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 1.5million offer made to Frampton to fight quiggJust seen that but Frampton has knocked it back as he wants it to be a shared promotion with Matchroom and his company. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
B1872 20,442 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Frankie Gavin meant to be fighting Kell Brook for his world title. Like Kell but can't help think they're trying to protect him in order to fight Khan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnionMen 411 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Frankie Gavin meant to be fighting Kell Brook for his world title. Like Kell but can't help think they're trying to protect him in order to fight Khan.Terrible fight, but Khan is being protected from Brook in order for him to fight Floyd.To be fair to Brook, he probably is short of opponent options. Not too many guys would want to come to Sheffield, the UK has a reputation for stitching-up fights for the home guy. I doubt someone like Thurman for example would risk that. Bradley is a good option, I reckon he probably beats Brook to a close decision, but it's a high-risk, low-reward option for Brook.At this oint in time he's better sticking to domestic guys because UK fighters bring their own fan bases so they at least rake some ticket revenue in, even if there isn't too much international interest. It was exactly the reason Hearn ruined Ricky Burns by having him sign with Matchroom despite being under contract with Warren... because he could sell out a venue like the SECC at £30+ a ticket against nobodies like Beltran.

I actually think those are 2 decent scraps... no way is it PPV material though. It's laughable.An exhibition of Joshua punching Kevin Johnson with his guard up will also feature.If this was free and on domestic TV i'd probably record it and if i managed to avoid the results i'd give it a watch. To think they are charging £18 or whateevr for it is simply laughable,Fuck SKY i seriously hope to see the day they go belly up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
