Mick Hennesey wanted to stage Chisora vs Fury in spain

[ryan917]

Hhahaha just been speaking to Fury on FB and he said that BBofC rejected the Fury-Chisora fight being in Spain, that's why it has gone back out on purse bids again. Is Mick Hennesey on crack?? Why attempt to stage a big british fight in spain???

There is a lot of British money on the Costa Del Sol. Mickey Duff staged a Lloyd Honeyghan World title fight out there. I think its quite original.

Just the Irish bar owners alone would have filled a huge venue

[Glyn Leach]

Think he planned to stage a John Murray fight in Spain once too. Seems like he has connections out there.

[dondada]

If so, that would have been a cracking move from Big Mick. Plenty of people would have gone for a weekend away on the lash

[DavidPayne]

Yep....everyone except Dereck Chisora.

[MacTavish]

Maybe he can get Hasim Rachman a fight in Gibraltar...

Gibralter moves quicker than Hasim.

Incidentally: Has the British Title ever been contested outside of the British Isles?

On an undercard in America for example?

Yeah that was the fight with Gene Hatcher at the bullring, Bruno fought on that card too.

[palooka]

Got to be a Tax reason in there somewhere

[MightyWarrior]

Yeah I went to the Honey/Hatcher fight in Marbella, great fun - open air bull ring and postponed for one day due to an electrical storm. Good turn out too, lots of Brits and none too bothered we saw one of the fastest world title fights in history.

[ed robinson]

I think Magee v Oakey was a British title fight in Dublin. That's the only one I can think of outside of G.B. Although there have been Irish title fights in America.

[stujones]

Is Mick allowed to rebid for the fight?

[ed robinson]

Yes.

[IronLiver]

Maybe fury could fight jonny Vegas in benidorm?

If anyone has a link to the fat controller himself please suggest this to him.
