Hennessy said, “I’m delighted to bring the historic British Heavyweight Championship back to mainstream, free-to-air, television on Channel 5 where it will be seen by the biggest viewing audience possible due to their considerable reach and exposure.

"I can’t believe that it will be nearly seven years since the British Heavyweight title was last seen on free-to-air in the UK on Channel 5, which we also promoted.

"We’re back with a bang along with our partners Infinitum and thrilled to deliver a great fight for the fans between two proud and fierce warriors in Sam and Hughie and one that will make the whole country sit up and take notice.

"I’d like to thank Channel 5, Infinitum, Peter Fury and Graham Everett who were involved to make this happen and I can’t wait for May 12th.”

Hughie himself is an alumni of Channel 5, where he commenced his professional career and learnt his trade from World Heavyweight Amateur Champion to World heavyweight title contender.

Now Hennessy returns with a mouthwatering domestic heavyweight clash that will headline an action-packed show which is set to whet the appetite of boxing fans and Channel 5 viewers as they battle it out for the Lord Lonsdale belt.

I'm surprised that he's still in business. The Parker-Fury debacle must have cost him at least a million. Fair play to the fella though, he's still in the game.

The sites you lift stuff from and writers who put the pieces together get paid through clicks and readerships on their sites. You posting this stuff without even given attribution is harmful to livelihoods. These people spend time to research and prepare these pieces and are totally driven by clicks to the stories to then get clicks to advertising.

Just put a link to the story with a brief summary then people can still read it and discuss having clicked to read the article and no one is hurt. I am amazed mods have not stamped on this.

I’ve seen him loads on ITV. Usually Bradley Walsh asks him loads of questions. Think it’s ITV at 5.

They summed it up perfectly and if you listened in, will understand my point mate. None of the threads need to change, just the practise of copy and pasting. Instead, just put the link to the original story in the opening post. Simple

I work in the industry mate and my ability to call someone out on unprofessional practises which are harmful to a colleague does not make me not "great going for a pint."

It is theft fella, how would you like it if someone came and did something to decrease how much money you earn?
