Mick Henessey

You have too much time on your hands Lee!

 

He doesn't like talking about himself which is very unusual in his job.

I've only ever seen one interview with him which was in Boxing Monthly some years ago now.

 

He used to be in the chorus line of Riverdance!!! (Fact)

 

He once had a serious addiction to Sherbet Dips but was thankfully cured by Paul McKenna.

 

Legend has it that this Tee-shirt was once owned by Mick before it became too small for him...

am with neil met him at the bunce and was sound was really honest about everything we asked him about

 

I spoke to him at the York Hall and he smiled at me upon hearing that I had lost my money due to them changing the date of the Froch fight. Kind of wound me up. I have always backed his door but I can't see what the hell he is doing at this point. If Froch were to go I culd see an exodus. Shame he does seem like a nice bloke but he has been a right ****-up merchant lately.

If he had taken a reduced amount from Sky and got Froch vs Taylor on, Froch would be huge now and able to command the T.V. fees he asks for.

 

His favourite food is fudge.

 

In important meetings he tends to fidget and look at his phone in complete silence

 

yeah

 

It's funny cos its true.

 

he believes the canadian market is the way to go for the future, dunno if hes right but hes well into trying to sell froch et al in canada

 

Speaking to a friend of mine few weeks back and he's around the se london area and he said word is Mick's mother died and he's taken it really badly and that's why he's got that tash.

I don't get his decision making at all...he's really frustrating because he wants his fighters to fight the best which some promoters don't but yet he gets them these big fights and doesn't secure deals with tv channels because he seems to let pride get better of him.
