Use all his main fighters Galahad, Eubank, DeGale and Hughie Fury on the undercard to try and get some sky dates? If so we could have some cracking fights.

i m sure he wont gamble his channel 5 relationship on just that a gamble.....may see some of his more unrecognisable fighters my guess would be hughie fury be the only main one who will get put on card.

Not the Galahad v Dickens fight?

Maybe the 5 deal is already Fooked?

I just hope it has a god support bill & they dont just take us who have bought tickets as mugs.

In one of iFilms interviews from yesterday Hearn said the undercard will be 50% hennessey and 50% Hayemaker (Matchroom will provide these). He mentioned Scott Quigg then said that might be deserving of its own bill - and also talked about Crolla. I'd be happy with Quigg/

Who's Mick got left that can genuinely grace a PPV? Eubank, Galahad, Hughie Fury... De Gales gone now hasn't he?

Is Degale still with Henessey? I'm sure I read that he was in talks with Top Rank as a free agent.

All of Mick's fighters that have graced the screens of Channel 5 are pretty much as good as the undercard fighters on the last few Sky PPVs.

The Haye/Wlad undercard was particularly underwhelming.

I know Bellew is a name, and his fight was on the Froch undercard.... but let's face it, after the first Chilemba fight.... sneaking that one onto a PPV was the only way to handle that one. Nobody would have watched the rematch if it had been headlining a show (again).

You could be right - Channel 5 decide to move on a fight-to-fight basis with Hennessey and a few months later the Haye / Fury fight is on !

Interestingly, although we don't know the nature of the contracts but it sounds as though if he still had an exclusive deal with Channel 5 then this fight would probably not be made.
