I was confused to why Warren signed Mbaye in the first place. Basing an average at best Frenchman in Bolton were he has no fans his hardly a money spinner.
Well lets look at the circumstances surrounding that:

- Ricky Hatton had split, somewhat acrimoniously, from Frank Warren
- Ricky then won the WBA strap from Carlos Maussa
- M'Baye was the WBA mandatory
- M'Baye was signed up by Frank Warren
- WBA said that Ricky must fight his mandatory or vacate
- Ricky vacated
- Frank now had control of one portion of the 140lb division and also managed to take it from Ricky Hatton

Wether you feel it's petulance or sharp practive you gotta admit Franks slick...

People forget just how hard Frank made it for Ricky at that time. Signing up exclusive deals with the MEN arena etc...
