No your prob right there Diggler.

But Murray wins the European title and then he's got No3 ranking with WBC.

He's only one fight away himself in theory from a title shot himself if he gets the european title.
True, but how long would it take to actually get that shot? Witter, and in particular Eastman seemed to wait an eternity to get their world title shots despite being European champs high in the WBC rankings.

I'm hoping they find some solution, it's good that Fury and Barker on upcoing Matchroom shows but they need Murray v Kudraystev to be on Sky I think and just hope they get one TV deal.

In terms of that fight could it maybe appear on the Burns v Martinez bill or Mitchell v Katsidis, I cant comment on how Warren and Hennessy are but Hennessy needs to get these guys fighting.

Different fighters take a dfferent amount of time to reach there goals. However it's a little concerning how Murray was at pace with Amir Khan and that fight was talked of. Khan has moved into a complete new stratusphere in the last year. Now he's compared to Mitchell who is getting a world title shot in May. Must be hard for Murray not to get a bit disgruntled and fed up.

Amir Khan has got where he has due to having an excellent promoter - let people try to deny that one!!!

John Murray is the one boxer where I would question Hennessy - I stand by what I have stated in that I think Hennessy has done absolutely fantastic by his boxers gaining them shots at titles which other promoters may have failed at - however I have to concede to a degree the progession of John Murray with regards the promotional aspects.

For me Murray has everything to be a major star - I honestly think though Murray may move on - just an opinion but one in which I have had for sometime and this lack of TV does not help Hennessy's cause - I hope "Meaty" pulls something out of the bag.

Television exposure is what makes money for fighters. In this respect I would say that Hennessey has perhaps not delivered for his fighters of late.

Frankie, for all his doubters, does put his fighters in the money.
