It would be good if allegedly and Coldwell and Wood etc could strike a deal where the best fights/prospects from their shows are broadcast on BN on delay during the week.

cant see BN working with coldwell.....

For David Coldwell to make it in his own right ... he needs the obvious ... a TV deal.

Dave has provided Eddie Hearn some top lads and produced a lot of good fights ... it will be good for boxing if the likes of Coldwell and other promoters to get some decent TV ...

For me I do not see why Sky cant put on other promoters shows other than Eddie Hearns ... even if they gave say 6 shows a year to other promoters who have to fight to get their shows on ... in my view some healthy competition would raise the standard of some of the more predictable fights and shows.

I agree Spud, but lets be honest it aint gonna happen. When Hobson was touting the Jamie McDonnells fight around Eddie said he would promote but Hobson wasn't going on Sky on his own steam.

Skint..if he carries on with this boxing lark. (he made a profit on one show this year)

I think if Coldwelll finds himself a way of breaking into TV ... I actually think he could do very well for himself Dave has picked up invaluable experience working with the as named then Sport snetwork, also Hayemaker Promotions and Fast Car Eddie ... he knows the games and politics promoters have to play now!!

I have in the last 14 years working in boxing only ever met 1 promoter is NOT a *** ... not unduly slating promoters there because they have to be ****s whether they like it or not to survive ...

Going to be an interesting 2014 ...

The big lad didn't have the technique to touch gloves.

In addition he needs TV to be a little more flexible than the monopolies that are occuring at the moment ... As soon as a fighter wins a decent fight ... the vulchers from the TV companies are hovering for the fighter to sign for their promoter.

The way boxing is in regards to TV opportunities has closed many doors in regards to other promoters becoming major players.

When did Coldwell cease his position as Head of Boxing at Hayemaker? Was there some sort of fall out, and is Coldwell still well connected to Hayemaker? For a while you could never watch anything Hayemaker related without seeing Coldwell and Booths heads looking out of Hayes pockets.

Dave has no connection with Hayemaker and hasn't had for a long time.
You don't need a Head of Bxing when the Promotion Company has only one fighter.
A pity Setanta went under.

He was on the team in Hamburg for Wlad long after Setanta.

hes not now though.....

Mickey,
The two comments weren't connected mate. What I meant was that if Setanta hadn't collapsed then Hayemaker would have kept / expanded the stable and then there would be a definite need for a Head of Boxing / Matchmaker.

Agreed

Discussed the Setanta situation a couple of days ago with someone ... frustrating to say the least .. their business plan was deeply flawed from the outset.

Genuinly enjoy the cold well shows. Actually has some decent fights although wasn't keen when he was disrespectful to a journeyman for upsetting his fighter on his last bill. Lacked class
