    Hello Eastsiders,

    I've been asked to research Hennessy promotions for someone and seeing as their website is down this is definitely the next best source for information!

    Just wondering if anybody could tell me the fighters he currently has on his books? and what Ingle fighters he promotes?

    Any other info or just opinions on Hennessy sports as a promotion company would be a great help.

    Thanks.

    Tyson Fury
    Kid Galahad (Ingle Fighter)
    Chris Eubank Jr.
    Phil Fury (haha)

    that's about it, he's on his arse basically.

    Mick gets far too much stick. He is a fantastic promoter who did a marvellous job with Carl Froch. The TV deal he has with channel five is real coup.

    Hennessy is a very underrated promoter.

    Thanks for the replies.

    Does he put on any shows outside of the Channel 5 dates at the moment?

    It would be difficult with such a small stable, is fighters r contracted to fight on 5 so many times it would not be possible (at the moment) I Think

    If you don't mind me asking, what is the purpose of the research?

    Sounds like a funny thing to look into just for the hell of it.

    Not at all. A relative of mine manages a place that's interested in putting on pro and amateur boxing events, they've got a meeting coming up with someone from Hennessy Sports and just wanted me to clue them up a bit with what Hennessy has going on.

    I think they could probably stretch to a McDonalds value meal.

    Does Kid Galahad shift a lot of tickets when he's fought near Sheffield before?
