    Realistically though, does he?

    I mean sure his ITV4 cards were nothing short of horrendous a lot of the time (and he has the cheek to wonder why they pulled out of boxing:patsch) but they were devoting three/three and a half hours to shows so his weak undercards were magnified.

    Whereas Channel 5 are usually just showing one live fight and Eubank Jnr, so there is no need or incentive for him to produce a better undercard now.

    If he does sign with Matchroom, i think we could end up seeing Froch-Degale sooner than we think?

    Degale would be fat Micks star man if he went there forget Fury.
    He needs at least three big named fighters for this tv deal to work.

    How will Hennessey afford him?

    And why would he want him? He doesn't sell tickets.

    Honestly I don't think fighting on Tyson Fury undercards on Channel 5 is really that alluring.

    Brooks a much more likeable character than DeGale and didn't make himself so roundly hated.

    He can't even do a Eubank because he's got zero charisma. Bit of a lost cause, IMO.

    other fighters get spoken about alot on this site and otehr boxing ones. For this fight there has been next to nothing.

    publicity from boxnation has been poor though

    Lost cause is a bit harsh, kid has talent, think Eddie could do something with him.

    Some people are far too quick to judge
