    Mick Hennessy has just Tweeted, but gave no further information

    Any idea?

    Is it a match - e.g. Wlad, or Kid Galihad?

    A new signing?

    TV Deal?

    Kid Galahad is the only fighter of any stature that they have. Any Fury based information seems to come out of FW now, new signing is in with a chance and if its TV then they could be teaming up with BT?

    He hinted in a recent interview that he was waiting on dates for Galahad from Channel 5 and that he wants to be involved with more of the Monte Carlo shows.

    I don't think it's to do with Fury because he fights next week and that would take his eyes off the prize.

    Hennessy's website has been updated and looks half decent now- I doubt that's the big announcement though.

    I question the timing of any Fury announcement given he fights next week- Hammer shouldn't cause him many problems but the last thing Tyson needs are needless distractions before any fight.

    Quigg vs Galahad? Haha Galahad has beat nobody and Quigg is still out injured so it wont be that one, that's for sure.

    Neither of them have beaten anybody. It's a 50/50 fight.

    :lol: World champion but he has beaten nobody?! He hasn't beaten any top class fighters like Frampton, Rigo or Santa Cruz but the level of opposition he has fought is far superior of that of Galahad. Jazza ****ens is the best win that Galahad has and he is just a good prospect, could turn out to be a very good fighter, who knows, but at the minute Galahad in terms of resume anyway, is below what Quigg has been facing recently.

    As for turning down the fight, it was an offer made after Quigg was already put on the Bellew vs Cleverly bill, was a good offer, but it was in Abu Dhabi or somewhere like that. As Quigg said why fight there when our fans are in the UK.
