Frampton has signed an "advisory" deal with MTK (Matt Macklin)

This doesn't mean they are his new promoter but seem to be assisting him with getting a promoter.

MR - any idea what this means ?

Seems a bit strange, perhaps it is a similar arrangement to Mick Conlan, opening up the possibility of teaming up with an American promoter like Top Rank with MTK being the European representatives.

Dont think it makes a renewed partnership with Eddie Hearn likely now if MTK are involved.

Rio going to give boxing a go. Where McGregor leads..

Probably  be fighting for a World title soon

I'm sure a lot of stuff will come out but I'd rather it didnt from me... family connections, let's just say boxing can be a great sport but the shit that goes on behind the scenes most people wouldn't believe

Andre Ward announces his retirement

Sure he was no good according to some in here

Like Mayweather, his style was easy to appreciate academically but impossible to love. Unlike Mayweather he wasn't a total jackass out of the ring, though.

[omaghjoe]

He retired because no one wants to watch him.
Fortunately that's how it works in prize fighting

Yeah, what we need is more multi million selling ppv fights like Mayweather-McGregor...

[nrico2006]

Ward was good but his last two fights have left a sour taste.

Watched the Frank Warren card on Boxnation last saturday. Nearly every single fight was a mismatch. Found the whole thing far from enjoyable but held on to watch the Saunders fight. It was shite too. Monroe came to hide and looked like he wasnt going to ever give it a rattle. Pointless.

Conlon had a decent win last night. It's hard to tell but I still haven't been overly impressed by him yet.

He's fighting bums to warm up like just about every fighter. No point trying to question his credentials until he fights someone of note.

Frampton signing with Frank Warren?? What's he at!
