    Perfect setup for Warren that werent it. On one hand he's a genius, but on the other he gets to be 'honest' Frank talking about a fighter he doesnt give a flying fuck about.

    Franks second fiddle now to Edward, but over the years you'd have been a fool not to sign with him.

    Warren just royally shafted Degale by not having a rematch clause in the contract (clearly doesn't give a fuck because Degale refuses to sign with him) The Beef between him and Hearn is simmering again because Warren keeps banging on about Stubhub/Resale sites selling face value tickets a 5 times what they're worth.
    Hearns responses have simply been "If he could fill a venue then he'd know how it works"
    I just heard there was a Warren promotion due this Saturday in Brentwood/Essex that has just been cancelled because of zero interest.
    Wonder how long BT Sports will stick with Warren?
    The Copperbox wasn't even full last Saturday even with 2 world title fights.
    I said this the other month.... "potentially" Warren has some decent fighters but he needs them way further along in their careers right now. not in 2/3 years time.
    Must seriously piss him off that Eddie Hearn has stolen all his toys in the past 6/7 years

    Part of me thinks Warren and Eddie have a brandy and a good giggle at all this back and forth stuff. They both say the same things over and over. I buy that Frank wasn't responsible for the DeGale rematch clause.

    Interesting 12 months coming up with Warren/Dubois/Yarde. I wonder if Eddie is already into Dubois and Yarde ready for when Joshua fucks off to do AJ promotions.

    This is a good interview and i'm with Warren on this stubhub business 100%
    He fires into Matchroom here and even shows a document claiming Matchroom were mentioned in parliament recently regarding ripping off the punters.

    I agree about Frank.

    All promotors are dodgy but matchroom have been exposed.

    The English judges score in the Degale fight last Saturday will tell you all you need to know about Frank Warren

    Massively exposed , simple question is... where are stubhub getting bulk Matchroom fight tickets in units of 500 to sell at 3, 4 or 5 times the face value if they are not getting them from Matchroom?

    Really is only one answer to that.

    It's so frustrating and it happened to me the day the Froch v Groves 2 tickets went on sale, within seconds of the official Matchroom phone line being opened stubhub had literally tens of thousands of tickets on sale at well over face value, are Matchroom actually trying to convince people that thousands of punters bought tickets "Officially" then all decided to post them up on stubhub for resale within minutes
    2 phones going for hours and not once did we get through.
