When Nigel Benn was at his peak and a worldwide name,many many times do i recall fight after fight lined up for Nige falling through and Warren was saying then exactly what he says now about certain foreign fighters purse demands doubling a few days before the contract is signed.
The question?
Do we believe him?
I think in the case of Calzaghe,Warren has protected his investment and maybe now even more so with Hatton Jumping ship
There is also a good case for those who feel it is "Other fighters" who have been protected from our boys.
After all i firmly believe that after Benn/McClellan,Roy Jones ducked Nigel (Big Time) and Steve Collins (which IS common knowledge).
Warren has stated that Khan will be challenging for honours soon as possible but that would be foolish imo as proved with Naseem who (let's be honest) was made to look a c*nt by the far superior Barrera.
It's a double edged sword and we'll never really know but i think it's often a 50/50 thing.
