If you were a boxing fan you would hope they survive, because Sports Network and fight acadamy won't take all the fighters will they

Hennasy has braught a lot of promicing young fighters up resonably well, he seems to be a good promoter in terms of developing young tallent and building his fighters to be national draws rather than home town heroes. They also all seem to go the traditional root not the wank warren over protected lets buy a title and hold on to the trinkit root. In eastmans case it was unfortunat but he is not a easy man to promote, as Woodall often says he is president of the who needs him club. He is a fighter who could beat most out their but brings little acclaim. Maybe if the is a critisysm it is that Hennassy didn't go over to the US.

Incodently who thinks the would be mialege in Howard moving down to jr middle and fighting Winky wright.

You wont be seeing Howard at Light Middle and that would be a badmove for him...If anything he should move upto Super Middle.

Hennessy probably is finished. Certainly at the top level anyway, because I don't see that there will be to much interest from any other tv channels. You can't be a top promoter with a tv deal. It's a shame really, because Hennessy could probably do alot more than Fwank Warren if he had the same resources.

It will be interesting to see what Froch and Eastman do. Froch said he will stay loyal to Hennessy, but how is he going to achieve what he wants to without any tv coverage?

I guess it will be possible for an indipendent promoter to sell individual fights and Froch sertainly has the profile to sell to TV.
