Fair play to the man, he's hung in there despite looking like at one point, he was on the outside looking in.

Also glad to see that he and Warren are working together, I guess Hearns position with Sky means it's a case of expediency, but I'm always happen to see former rivals working together, I think boxing benefits the more of it's high profile management/promotional figures work together.

Excuse my ignorance, but is Hennessy just managing now, and not promoting. I've not really been keeping an eye on such matters any more. Is frank the promoter, or is he just providing the TV platform, or both?

Good that Sky has a rival also, and one which is all about boxing, competition between the broadcasters can only be a good thing.

Always been a big fan of Mick Hennessey.

I think that if any manager / promoter deserves to make a good living from boxing then its Mick.

I always thought allegedly had a very good position in offering airtime to other promoters that sky can longer give, it's a pity they haven't yet grasped that potential. Maybe working mick on this will open the idea to them.

Fair play to the Fury's as well, loyalty is rare in any walk of life or business.

True :TU: Nice to see they've stuck by him. Promoters and their fighters usually fist fukk one another at the first opportunity.
