    Firstly this is strictly a rumour at the moment and may turn out to be nothing more!

    Apparently hatton has added a certain carl froch to his stable; sounds unlikely to me but it would make absolute sense for hatton to sign britains only world champion.

    That lasts nights show wasn't picked up by a tv channel is typically depressing especially considering the decent names on the card, this news could be very big....

    Nice one Jeff.

    At least under Hatton he might get a bit more exposure. Hennessey is an idiot !

    I am a bit surprised he did not get a tv deal, did he price himself out by doing a Hennassy or was it a case of no company being interested?

    Hope this is true, Hennessy let Carl and the fans down big time with the tv for the Taylor fight.

    Would bode well for the Super Six coverage obviously. Fingers crossed

    Cheers Jeff

    Would really screw Warren if they did, prob to many egos - works at Goldenboy though with loads of ex fighters working together in harmony

    Interesting:think. Bodysnatcher, the lack of a TV deal may be a factor but, that said, apparently Hennessey was one of the main driving forces behind the Super Six; hard to believe, though, in all honesty it's probably nothing more than just a rumour as it sounds fanciful to say the least. Who knows? As Slip says, Hatton, Hayemaker and JC Promos need to unite to become a proper British boxing force.

    Keep 'em coming, Jeff:good.
