Shaun Brown ‏@shaun_brown @WritingPride
Right, just spoke to Jim McDonnell and the DeGale announcement will "surprise everyone" but can't say owt coz "of the legal eagles that be"

:think

 

[SimonTemplar]

He's going to announce that he intends to work on developing a fighting style that is enjoyable to watch and a personality that is geared towards attracting fans?

 

[Robney]

He's going to rematch Sanavia for the EBU title :bbb

 

[Vano-irons]

Shaun knows his stuff. If he says it'll surprise everyone, then it will

 

[Back to Bill]

I reckon it could be Golden Boy or Sauerland, somebody like that?

Shaun mentioned that, but it wouldn't be very surprising.

I thought that was announced a few weeks ago

Fighting Abraham for world title on Channel 5?

That's McDonnell saying it will surprise everyone, hence the inverted commas.

didn't some lad say a few weeks back he bumped into him at V festival and he said he was fighting fat mick

[Vano-irons]

Pretty good move on all fronts.

 

[GazOC]

"The high profile event will be broadcast live on Channel 5 in the UK, Wealth TV in the United States of America and around the globe."

:hey

 

[Chatty]

Well that was as much as a surprise as Hattons big announcement when he retired (or when he came back) and Matchroom announcing they had a sky deal.

 

[GazOC]

Wern't we discussing this a week or so ago? TBH I thought it was already signed.

 

[Noonaldinho]

Was Eddie Hearn not interested in him? or does he think he's more trouble than he's worth?!

Frank's stable is reducing quickly!

 

[dftaylor]

Hearn seems smart enough to not over-commit financially to guys who can't sell tickets. DeGale doesn't sell tickets - so he's perfect for Mick and the C5 deal.

 

[Scotty]

Good move for Chunky. The exposure he'll get on Wealth TV should turn him into a household name in the US.

 

[wrimc]

Good move for both> Still think Hennessy is a very underrated promoter.
