    Just seen the news that Richard Schaefer has announced a new promotional company.

    When reading the article it says it’s founded by Ali Shams Pour who on a quick search it’s uncovered that he’s an MTK frontman and currently owns 50% or Hennessy sports

    I never realised that Hennessy sports sold off a large share of his company and must have been in a tight spot. This may also point to the reason BT and Sky won’t give him shows given that he’s co owned by MTK.

    the new probellum company will be putting on 90-100 shows in its first year which my guess is it’s likely to be a move by MTK to promoting in more markets. Can’t see how they finance that otherwise with no stable and no tv deal

    this is an interesting read


    Given Hennessy and Probellum are owned by the same man it will be interesting if they co promote down the line
