Fair comment about the Pascal fight. I'd forgotten that was ITV.
It doesn't change the point I made though. Various promoters had fighters built up like Carl and took them to bigger things; Hennessy had Carl on an obscure stream in his biggest fight to date. Why?

I'm not even sure this is worth a debate. More people saw the infamous Cobra Class of 2002 cartoon than watched both Froch-Groves fights combined.
