    Im guessing Froch is still with mick because of his tie in with the super six also im guessing Froch will prob be loyal to him because he got him his world title etc. I reckon Froch may not have come this far if he was with Frank to begin with but it def time for a change when the super six is over. Surely he if he wins or gets to the final he will have the world at his feet and the choice of any promotor, maybe hatton or Golden Boy?

    No-one is saying Frank is the savior personally i dont like the guy but he can sometime be a excellent promoter Kevin Mitchells latest fight is an example of this and btw are you having some sort of realations with this Haroon character as you seem to keep bringing him up when he has nothing to do with this topic? i admit to have heard of him but wouldnt say hes a well know prospect.

    Its majorly frustrating really boxing fans really dont even spend that much money in comparsion with a football fan because there arent games week in week out nor is there the same merchandising. Football,Rugby,Cricket fans will splash out £20-30 every other week on a game and a fair bit on merchandise + programmess etc The average boxing fan dependding on where they are may get 2-3 promotions in their region a year and 4 ppv events per year. Despite this many promoters are not able to get people to pay a minimal £150-300 a year to enjoy the sport. Frank Warren is able to do this well he can get people to pay and that is where his genius lies in the sport

    harroon khan is no way near a better known amateur and to be fare cant see him going with warren mark heffron and scott cardle callum smith much more known than haroon mark heffron will go further aswell....but apart from that the topic was about froch and why no one knows he is fightin on saturday in a top class fight its because he is with a shite promoter do u think warren would ever have a fight like that no he wouldnt that is the difference in managers and promoters froch got it all wrong and now he is paying for it shame because the lads got talent :yep

    ive as feeling that theres that much money coming from the danish side of the deal they dont need to worry about revenue from uk , maybe hennessy has set a price and its take it or leave it. uk telly want showbizz , froch needs to paint himself red white and blue and put bells on his gloves ,shout alot , wear tee shirts depicting decapitation, and he'd be on terrestrial every night.

    Well if they are getting enough money for the fight anyway i think they are guaranteed at least a million then why not give the fight away fro free??? there is no point having a legacy unless people know about it

    Froch's loyalty to Hennessey should be appluaded not mocked in my opinion. He, Carl Froch, must have realised a while ago that he was never going to be a household name/superstar but he obviously recognises that Mick Hennessey has taken him to the top level of the sport and has landed some great oppotunities for him.

    However, that's not to say that I think Mick Hennessey is without fault. Despite the doom merchants proclaiming that boxing is "dead", television viewer statistics suggest that there is a lot of people in this country who will still watch the sport if they know it's on and that requires marketing. There is no doubt that if Mick Hennessey was able to negotiate with ITV then Carl Froch would be generating millions of viewers.

    money runs this world its good to have a legacy but its good to have a gd bank balance with it history books are filled with fighters who were great fighters but got nothing out of the game and if u are really into ya boxing then you would pick a boxing book up if ya not then u wouldnt people who dont follow boxing no who the likes of calzagie,hatton,haye are outside the sport but people wont no who froch is will he just want to be someone who got his name in a history book i think not.
