    When Hennessy had the gig a couple of years ago it was top drawer entertainment. Some of the matchmaking was brilliant, you were garunteed at least one absolute war on every show.

    A couple of Eggingtons fights back then were some of the best 50/50 dust ups I've seen

    Meanwhile the MC is annoyed because beers are been thrown in the ring.

    Bentley vs Udofia is the best fight Wasserman have had on channel 5 so far. That was a Friday night cracker. Most shows since then have been weak.

    Josh Kelly vs Troy Williamson another. Mick Hennessy’s shows may have been more entertaining but a lot of that was to do with Eggington and I think some of Wasserman’s main events have been at a high level than Hennessy’s.

    One of the stand out fights for me on Channel 5 came on a Hennessy show - Alex Dilmaghani Vs Samir Ziani. What a war.

    Forgot about this fight. A shame they don’t show the undercards on tv anymore.
