Fat Mick seems to have single handedly got boxing on terrestrial TV. He gets some stick but I for one am going to give him credit where it is due here.
It's almost a shame his stable have left him. That said, I think Frich is PPV quality and deserves to be on Sky but apart from him, some of Hennessy's former stable would benefit from this TV deal. I wouldn't be surprised if the boxing on 5 isn't exclusive to Hennessy though.
**** promoter but must be a decent manager got froch the WBC title and got witter the WBC as well darren barker the British, Commenwealth and maybe european all with a TV deal 2 of whom are now star attraction of matchroom so he must have something then there is Mcintosh,Daws I think Elcock is also one of his former fighters also got an Ibf title shot for all the lack he gets he once had probably the best stable of fighters in britian
Somehow Hennesey has been involved on boxing on ITV, boxing on C5, Froch in the SS, Fury, Murray and many others. He isn't hard enough as a promoter, his marketing is absolutely dire and he's ****ed up HUGE opportunities. When fighters leave promoters, if the fighter isn't being a little ***** then there tends to be merit. Calzaghe and Hatton let ****** cos he can't cut it on the really big stage. Murray and co have left Hennessey cos he can't cut it at the top of the domestic/international stage. C5 - PT - Mirror/Star etc IF Hennessey mucks up this opportunity then what can you say. He has the portal for huge marketing and the stage to show his product. Don't **** it up Mick.
