Frank Warren Quotations

Therefore, I had to make a fight for Joe as he had to get some rounds under his belt,

I was surprised to read those comments. I don't know how anyone can question Joe's heart after the career he has had. He's proved himself the No.1 in the division.

I have never had a cross word with Ricky nor even with his father Ray, but sadly I now feel I have been left with no other choice.

He's had injuries, but you've seen him fight on American TV. ... It's denigrating my own man. I don't understand it. He will be there on March 4 and see where we are. I have all the faith he will prove to the world how great of a champion he is.

He is an exciting young fighter and one of the best that I have worked with and I am sure he can go on to win world a title.

He is gentle. He never gets angry. You'd never know he'd ever been a fighter. He talks to the people and he speaks with sincerity.

He doesn't drink. He goes to mosque every day. He's well grounded. He respects the talent he's been given. If he stays this way, he'll be a huge superstar.

He's got fantastic hand speed and a fantastic jab. Joe showed what a true warrior he is. He has got a great heart and a great chin and I can't tell you what a fantastic performance that was.

We look forward to continuing to promote these great young boxers managed by Frank and continuing our close relationship. We wish Frank all success in the pursuit of his private interest in the world of boxing.

I admire Scott for taking a dangerous fight he could have avoided. All I have ever had is Scott's best interests at heart and hopefully he has made the right decision.

Joe Will be ready to fight in 2006 and hopefully Lacy will be in the opposite corner.

Joe is never going to be ready for that (November date) so we'll try to rearrange it for next year. It is frustrating for Joe but these things happen in boxing. It is a great shame. We'll do the fight early next year, maybe February.

It is frustrating for Joe but these things happen in boxing.

I think Amir Khan - if he does what is expected of him - will be the biggest ever of any British fighter.

That was the best performance by a British boxer since I've been involved with the sport.

We wanted to make the Lacy fight early but they insisted he wasn't ready and he would fight Reid first,

We've got three really talented guys here and it's exciting to be working with them. I think they can go on and make big names for themselves.

We were thinking of keeping the same guy but we may well look to somebody a little bit better although that guy was ranked much higher than Amir.

We tried to make this fight many years ago but the stumbling block was always what Roy wanted to be paid.

I very much doubt that it is going to go on. He is never going to be ready for that so we'll try to rearrange it for next year,

The bottom line is I have an agreement with him, ... We have had an excellent relationship and I certainly don't want to go down any court route, but at the end of the day I have to look after Sports Network's interests. We're still talking and hopefully something will be resolved.

That's just the kind of fight that I want to see Joe in and just the kind of fight audiences would love,

Young Kevin was up at the office yesterday with his mum talking about the future and that's what charges me up,

This is the fight that Joe, the media and the fans wanted and I am absolutely delighted that following some hard work over the last few days the fight is on,

This is very sad but hopefully the start of something good for Frank.

Don King isn't an idiot, he wouldn't be coming here if his boy had no chance,

That is an established business corridor. And with the high-income population growth in northern Mecklenburg County, they should have a large pool of small-business owners living in the surrounding market to draw from.

It'll be an overseas opponent, I hope an American who can extend him a few rounds.

It was a classy performance. Burns came to fight. He and his manager Alex Morrison thought he could win it and he took the fight to Arthur. But Alex stuck to the game plan.

It's totally out of order. It's about Ricky and Ray trying to grab as much money as possible.

It will be the biggest fight of the year in Britain and certainly one of the most highly anticipated fights on the world scene in recent years - and it will take place in the UK.

That segment of the market has been experiencing strong residential growth, which should be able to support all the new retail.

In that simple act, I think it is possible to understand ourselves better and even to take actions, or change behaviors.

I get 100 to 200 every day. I've received over 25,000 postcards in about 14 months.

Every single person has at least one secret that would break your heart...

I needed to recognize those secrets I was keeping from myself- secrets I had buried long ago. I needed Post Secret just as much as the other people who were mailing me their secrets.

Someday I will have nothing left to lose. I can't wait.

Sometimes you don't realize you've crossed a line until you're on the other side and can't go back.

At seventeen I'm waiting for my life to actually begin. I'm afraid I'll wake up tomorrow eighty years old and I WILL STILL BE WAITING.

The more I look back on my life, the more I see miracles.

Gary Shaw says a lot of things without engaging his brain sometimes and it's a great shame, because he's not a bad chap actually.

I read your secrets to escape from my own.

The secrets I receive reflect the full spectrum of complicated issues that many of us struggle with every day: Intimacy, trust, meaning, humor, and desire.

There are some secrets that we think we're keeping, but those secrets are actually keeping us.

I was a small business owner, father, and husband just living out in the suburbs. I kind of had a boring life until Post Secret came and turned that upside down. I printed up 3000 self-addressed postcards and handed them out to people on the street, inviting them to write down a secret on that postcard anonymously and mail it to me. I got a lot of surprises.

Dear soulmate, I don't know who you are, where you live, or what you look like. But I pray for you every nite and I ask God to point you in my direction.

Sometimes I think we keep secrets for the wrong reasons. If we could instead find that right person to talk to we might find that talking about an embarrassing story or admitting our frailty might lead to a more authentic relationship with others or ourselves.

Stop lying. There isn't enough time left.

The best way to hear somebody else's secret is actually to share one of your true secrets.

There are two kinds of secrets: those we keep from others and those we hide from ourselves.

Secrets are the currency of intimacy

Secrets can remind us of the countless human dramas, of frailty and heroism playing out silently in the lives of people all around us.

The confessions can touch on every human emotion. They can be laugh-out-loud funny, for sure, they can be heart-breaking, they can be sexual or hidden acts of kindness, they can be romantic...

Secrets can take many forms. They can be shocking or silly or soulful. They can connect us with our deepest humanity, or with people we'll never meet.

Trade your secrets and become who you are.

The children almost broken by the world become the adults most likely to change it.

You keep a secret inside of you and it feels like a wall that separates you from others.

How I wish I could hug everyone and tell them that it's okay. It's okay to be scared and angry and hurt and selfish. It's part of being human,

Sometimes when we think we are keeping a secret, the secret is actually keeping us.

Be wise enough not to be reckless, but brave enough to take great risks.

I just invite people to share a secret with me. It's not like I'm a psychiatrist who's going to react to it or a priest who's going to give you something to do. When you let it go, there's kind of this void and I think people like that.

Religious people fear hell -- Spiritual people have walked thru it.

Every single person has at least one secret that would break your heart. If we could just remember this, I think there would be a lot more compassion and tolerance in the world.

It's the children the world almost breaks who grow up to save it.

I am absolutely delighted to have entered into this agreement with SMG management and our past working relationship over the last ten years illustrates that their expertise in their field and our expertise in boxing compliments each other perfectly,

This is a great coup for Sports Network who not only promote Britain's most prominent world champions but also the best in outstanding young talent,

Alex has always been a very honest person and that means that he likes to do things the old-fashioned way and that is why he is meeting his mandatory challenger.

You've got to admire anyone who has done what McBride did. He got off his backside, went to the United States, and made something of himself. I didn't think he could beat Tyson, but he took what Tyson threw at him and did it.

The fight for me which encapsulates all what boxing is about is when Benn fought McClellan,

The market is healthy. But there's still not a lot of momentum out there.
