Obviously that puts him at the back of the line at Sky, which already had existing TV contracts with promoters it had used on a long term basis. Sky is the only boxing outlet in Britain at the moment and MH has only worked with BBC and ITV until relatively recently. There are only a certain amount of dates available per year, as you know. A big bunch has gone to Prizefighter, the Hattons have got a good few, and MH is left scrabbling around like anyone else, even FW at the moment — yet both MH and FW have stronger stables than the Hattons and Barry Hearn. Prizefighter seems to be popular, so I can understand why Sky might possibly believe Hearn currently has more to offer than MH or FW. But how Sky can believe that the Hattons have is beyond me, you'd have to ask Sky.
I thought Hennessey had a contract with Sky in between his BBC and ITV deals.I seem to remember his fighters been on there for a while.

Mmm, you might be right Micky but can't remember much of a relationship if there was one, just a few scattered dates

His other Co Manager was Dave Coldwell.
He put him on 3 shows since the Lockett fight.
You really do talk nonsense. As they say a little knowledge is dangerous.

Boxingchat, are you worried about the potential emergence in British Boxing of Golden Boy Promotions?
