Have ye noticed the new logo/icon at the start of all IFLs videos - the circle with "#fairnews" through it and "No comment for Irish media" on it???
MTK sponsor IFL TV, so that's why they have the logos at the start of the videos. As for the Irish media thing, i'm not sure, i'd be interested to know too if anyone knows what it is?
That I do know.MTK are boycotting the irish media because of the irish media constantly linking MTK to Daniel Kinahan - and him to very serious organised crime.....
Hearn pumps a bit of cash into IFL as well , pays for Kuggs and co's travel and hotels etc , they want the promotion and videos so its a no brainer.
In fairness Hearn has the foresight to do that with them from very early on before they had big viewing figures. IFL has played a huge role in big popularity increase of British boxing.
Is Daniel Kinahan self made? No. Even if he doesn't break the law directly - doubtful - he at ths very least has founded his business interests on ths drug money of his family and their associates.
MTK sponsor iFL TV. Before there was a shout-out at the start of videos, and now they incorporate MTK's boycott of the Irish Media..
Thanks. Pretty smart move by MTK. Linking up with a fledgling video crowd. Both benefit and both prosper together. It also overcomes the problems MTK have with more mainstream traditional media... For some reason I'll don't seem to get the same hate as MTK though.
It’s just a sponsorship by the looks of things. Watching all the IFL videos there doesn’t seem to be a preference for MTK shows or fighters. I’d also say IFL has a much bigger reach in the boxing world than the Irish media. So it’s a smart move placing all your eggs in that basket.
