If this fight isnt gonna be on British Tv i will be fucking pissed off, his has to be fight of the year candidate, I think Hennesey is proving to be a second rate promoter if he cant sell this fight to Sky,Setanta or ITV, Froch needs to fuck him off, Froch is our only current World Champ.
No live TV deal has yet been agreed to show Froch’s battle with Taylor, an incredible situation bearing in mind his status as Britain’s only world champion and the fact that he is fighting such a formidable opponent.
Promoter Mick Hennessy said: “The TV companies have let down not only Carl Froch, but also British boxing because to not show this fight live is a travesty.
“I am hoping a deal can still be made, but when you bear in mind some of the rubbish that the TV companies put on, the fact that they have not backed Carl to the hilt is very frustrating. He is the best super-middleweight in the world and a credit to his country. For his fight not to be shown would be nothing short of a disgrace.”
