Hennessy is a joke along with all British promoters.
Get this kid a bloody fight FFS, he should be fighting every month at this stage of his career not once every 3 or 4 months. He's put in the work and hard training and Hennessy is already making him disillusioned and then what happens..he's pumped full with adrenaline and bored so gets into trouble outside the ring because his promoter didn't do his job inside the ring!

barring injury he should fight every 2 months for first 2 years of his career...in my opinion.

It must be to do with fury. Hennessy needs to get some other headliners

With his limited am experience the lad needs to be fighting often in his first 18 months or so as a pro. Problem is it won't happen if he only fights on Hennesey bills.

Thats the deal he did. He went into the Hennessy deal and with channel 5 with open eyes.
He was always going to be on the coat-tails of Fury until he broke away and became a headline attraction himself.

I don't get how there are enough shows to put on to keep this lad busy...
Would be a shame if the best prospect in the UK was mismanaged....

Agreed but I fear the combination of is ego-maniac father and the self-serving Ambrose Mendy is the wrong combination to be guiding what is undoubedly a talent, if handled correctly.
I'd like to have seen him with Adam Booth as a trainer/mentor.
