Im not sure Hughie was actually signed too Hennessey as such anyway and is probably just going to go where the work is fight by fight.
See this is my point. You said yourself, Hennessy doesn't have the Clout, and I wonder whether this will have an effect on Tyson's career.
All these top promoters need money men behind them, they're not using all their own dough . Hearn has Sky, Warren has the east end steel guy that is big with West Ham as well (Rainham Steel.) Hennessy hasn't got that. I think that's the primary reason the rematch hasn't been made yet, and also the primary reason it'll probably be in Germany.
If Tyson was with Matchroom/Hearn, this would be at Wembley, I mean, they're more than likely having Bellew at Goodison ffs.
This isn't a criticism, far from it. I think Hennessy is the most genuine of the 3 promoters and I also really like the relationship Tyson has with Hennessy and how he has stood by him. However, eventually, he is going to have to go elsewhere because he's outgrown Mick. Sad but true really.
