A large part of the problem is that Frank now has to deal with fellow promotional big hitters. When he is operating on the UK scene and having his own way importing Mexican road sweepers and Russian fork lift drivers everything is fine and dandy. When he has to share the stage with a promotor of equal stature it all falls down as no one is willing to step back and take the short end, therefore it results in stalemate with each party blaming the other.

It doesnt help that Calzaghe is in the twighlight of his career and unlikely to force the issue with Frank like Ricky did.
