Is Frank Warren losing his grip? good read!

[Kirkland Laing]

It all depends on how serious other people are about competing with Frank. Haye and Hatton's promotional outfits are one-man operations designed to make as much money as possible from existing hot commodities. Expanding from promoting themselves to other people is where it starts to get tricky, expensive too. Haye's outfit will probably go the way of Lion Promotions. The question is whether Hatton will feel like putting the effort in when he retires, and it's a full-time job, or whether he'll keep his fifty million plus in the bank.

lennox retired with a small fortune for him to enjoy with his girlfriend/boyfriend(lets not start that again) yet found himself regularly commentating in the states and helping to promote various boxing events.

Does he need the money....of course not, the guy is a multi millionaire that gets paid peanuts for these sort of outings.

But its the love of the sport and the grip it has on you that keeps bringing lennox back.

Sadly as in the case of tyson, holyfield that grip can often have its downsides
