    So Fat Mick does have a presence on the forum then, you've made 5 posts all of which slate Hearn or praise Mick.

    Sorry Dennison don't agree with you on this one, what has hearn done or acheived?????. all of his fighters are stuck on sky getting between 30 - 250k viewers per fight where as hennessey fighters are getting nearly 2 million viewers on average, didn't fury vs chisora get over 3 million, if my maths are correct thats 12 times more viewers than khan and froch got for there last fights. if you were a boxer with ambition where would you go, its all about exposure and like him or not hennessey has certainly delievered that for fury, eubank and kid galahad.

    Degale and Frank had a disagreement about money obviously.

    Degale always stresses that he wants to fight regularly so for him to turn down a fight is surprising. Taking his ego into account, you have to believe that he will be open to other offers.

    Sorry to disappoint but I'm not Fat Mick...actually never meet him nor want too.

    And it is my choice if I want to slate Hearn and praise hennessey, imo Hearn has a lot to live up to if he ever wants to be known as a great promoter, he is nowhere near hennesseys, w****ns, hattons or maloneys level.

    Froch moved from one to the other for a reason to get more exposure. Not as many people knew him then, than now even fighting on terrestrial tv. Just because fury fights on terrestrial does it mean he's more known than Khan because he fights on sky?

    muhamad ali act.


    but there are ways of getting round it. take john duddys trainer/manager/promoter (irish ropes) fiasco. destroyed his career all for petty change.

    Hennessey has no world class fighters and doesn't put on 'BIG' shows so why would he want to go there.

    agree he hasn't at the moment they all left him and lost there titles or unbeaten records, he's got fury but thats it, eubank jr will take time to come through. but again i don't agree he does put on big shows, or he has in the past, is 9000 fans at nottingham arena not classd as BIG. so he has shown he can put on big shows and i still stand by what i said degale would be best to go with him because of channel 5.

    but then again has hearn put on any big shows as yet????? and i mean eddie not his dad.

    Didn't DeGale once say that he'd take a 50% pay cut to fight on terrestrial? Might have a chance to prove it soon...

    People with short memories. You forget the job McDonnel did with Gervais.

    As for De Gale, I hope it is a weight issue. Nothing could make me happier than to see De Gale V Bellew.
