We need the glovers are off for this Eddie n Frank round a table, oh yes!

ooh boxing friends

[@cliveharvey1212]

this cracked me up

[@benfrost124]

He might be desperate, but it’s bloody good for the fans and for boxing .

[@ORIGINOLINDIVIDUAL]

Whats good for fans ? its just an idea that wont happen. Warrens & Hearns fighters are not going to fight.

[@darrenbrogan5328]

How is he desperate he done better viewing figures then Eddie the weekend

[@benfrost124]

Darren Brogan it’s in reference to the above comments .

[@darrenbrogan5328]

ben frost alright mate I really don’t get why people are so anti frank if he wants to make the fights it’s good for boxing

[@flizzy4645]

How comes he wasn’t calling for this last yr. QUEENSBURY is on their last 🦵

[@adamgrogan6344]

If he keeps say “for the fans” eventually he’ll believe it aswell.

[@MadeInManny0161]

Why isnt it for the fans??...Lol

[@deviantvideos]

For the faaaaansss

[@adamgrogan6344]

He’s only going down this route because he’s on his last legs and by linking in with Eddie, he can piggy back on Matchroom’s success. Matchroom have nailed their business model and put on consistently good shows. Frank has some good fighters but his shows can’t compete.

[@patrickryce1225]

If they make this happen it could set a precedent and change boxing for good. The main problem with boxing (and theres many) is not getting the fights we want to see. Make this happen.

[@NangTalksBoxing]

I don't want to see it as I don't want to help his miserable old company stay afloat when it would do a lot better to let it sink

[@villain-ek3yv]

@@NangTalksBoxing just out of curiosity, what about the fighters signed with queensbury? of which the vast majority are Brits, Should they sink aswell.?

[@mohammedmashud4621]

@@villain-ek3yv they can find other promoters it's quite simple really

[@NangTalksBoxing]

@@villain-ek3yv they get distributed across other stables that pick out the top ones and leave the rest to sink. That way we get to see better boxing and less lower tier fighters who of course have a purpose to test the prospects but there's too many of them at the moment and it gives an excuse for the higher tier fighters to cherry pick. That way the only people who lose are the ones who aren't making any waves and although it may not be great for British fighters in the short term, in the long term it may result in more of the fights we want to see made as the only reason Frank's saying this is because he wants to stay afloat after all these terrible cards. I don't do promoter fanboying but when I see BS, I call it.

[@Thedementiaguy]

So much hate on here for Frank. Eddie is a different promoter with a completely different personality. With a bigger backing behind him with his Dads experience and other sports they promote. Frank is still a legend and has a very good stable. I love Eddie, but not everything works out. Look at DAZN. Frank keeps it simple

[@lukebodily83]

HAHAHAHAHAHA he needs eddie and eddie knows it, best promoter in the land anyone who says otherwise is absolutely thick tbh

[@Thedementiaguy]

Sorry, I didn't realise with your advanced specialist reading skills that I said anything about Frank being the best promoter. Sorry I'm uneducated and THICK...

[@mussnc3389]

Mate DAZN, I got GGG, Canelo, Garcia, and a fair few fights for a staggering £1.99 that’s awesome.

[@Thedementiaguy]

@@mussnc3389 DAZN only published this offer well after this post. And that's because it was going down the pan. But with this offer it has gained far more followers such as yourself. 4 months ago it was £10 a month

[@gunitsoilder3192]

Any matchroom FC fans that don't support this move forward are not boxing fans.

[@tonymcgold1861]

It's a shame Franks fighters need a bonus to Hearn decent money... just saying xx

[@Dogboon-]

What the hell is old fish eyes on about now? Paying bonus for winning? That's just stupid.

[@villain-ek3yv]

Stupid? It happens in other sports all the time, win bonuses.

[@Dogboon-]

@@villain-ek3yv that means he'll be using journey men. The fighter either goes in there to win or to get paid to just fight. A win bonus is not necessary since the winner usually gets a bigger purse anyway.

[@jamiefinn4438]

This is good for the sport, its brilliant that fighters from other promotions are gonna come together. But it wouldn't surprise me if Frank loses fighters to matchroom.

[@LimerickR266]

Queensberry and Matchroom let's have it!

[@yusufpatel5519]

Dennis McCann vs kash farooq is a fight that can be made on the matchroom vs Queensbury card

[@thew4rrior5code]

It seems odd that all of a sudden Frank wants to meet up and work with Eddie. Pre lockdown he pretty much hated Eddie/matchroom. The fans would obviously of loved these cards way earlier matchroom Vs Queensberry so yeah it would be good but I think Frank's desperate for Eddie right now and I don't think he's going to cooperate.

[@boxer786ful]

@Mark Murphy I know it is. Boxing in the past the top fighters would fight each other even then we had different promoters. Only in past 15 years it's has gradually got worse. One culprit was Mayweather and boxers have been following suit. I like canelo that man has fought and not backed away from a challenge. He fought Mayweather at 22
