Frank Warren's Column- 01/06/13

Posted on 01 June 2013 by Frank Warren in Frank Warren's Column: The Sun
Congratulations to Carl Froch on his fantastic performance in unifying the IBF and WBA World Super-Middleweight belts at London's O2 Arena last weekend. After a war that surpassed even their initial classic in Denmark three years ago, 'The Cobra' was at his venomous best and deservedly had his hand raised after 12 pulsating rounds.
What do we know about Ammeth Diaz, the Panamanian who meets Midlander Martin Gethin in a final eliminator for the IBF lightweight title at Walsall Town Hall tonight? The visitor was born in Panama City 29 years ago and entered the hardest profession back in his homeland in July 2000, at the tender age of just 17.
Coventry coach Paul Hudson has been a fighting man all his life. A decent kick boxer in his youth, the 39 year old ex amateur later turned his hand to teaching the fighting arts and has carved a reputation on both sides of the Atlantic as a man who knows his onions.
Big Ron Gray of Walsall assumed a virtual monopoly over the Midland fight scene during the final quarter century of the last millennium. A former scrapper on the fairground booths and one time Midland Area heavyweight challenger, the cigar chomping Black Country giant rose to become chief matchmaker to leading London faces Mickey Duff, then Frank Warren in the 1980s, before quietly bowing out of the game in 2001.

Gethin-Diaz Weigh-In

Posted on 30 May 2013 in Press Releases
Martin Gethin and Ammeth Diaz weighed-in this afternoon ahead of tomorrow night's IBF Lightweight Title Final Eliminator at Walsall Town Hall, which is live on BoxNation (Sky Ch. 437/Virgin Ch. 546).
Britain's Dereck Chisora will clash with unbeaten American Malik Scott in an exciting heavyweight showdown at Wembley Arena on Saturday 20th July. The fight tops an action-packed show that also features the IBF Intercontinental Super-Bantamweight Champion Carl Frampton; a potential thriller between Gary O'Sullivanand Billy Joe Saunders with O'Sullivan's WBO International Middleweight title on the line, plus super-flyweight ace Paul Butler, live and exclusive on BoxNation (Sky Ch. 437/Virgin Ch. 546).
Following reports on internet forums questioning whether the Billy Joe Saunders V John Ryder contest for the British Middleweight Championship will go ahead, in light of an announcement that Saunders will fight for the WBO Intercontinental Championship on July 20th at Wembley Arena, Queensberry Promotions wish to clarify the position by the following statement:
Promoter Frank Warren is delighted to announce that top Irish talent Carl Frampton will feature on his big show at Wembley Arena on Saturday 20th July, making his debut on the Channel Of Champions BoxNation (Sky Ch. 437/Virgin Ch. 546). All-action Frampton from Tigers Bay, Belfast, is the reigning European, Commonwealth and IBF Intercontinental Super-Bantamweight Champion with an undefeated record of 16 fights and 11 knockouts and is top-ten ranked in three of the major world governing bodies.
The Channel of Champions BoxNation catches up with British Lightweight ChampionMartin Gethin ahead of his clash in the IBF World Title Eliminator against Panama'sAmmeth Diaz on Friday.
