I have to give Micheal big credit here. He is on the big stage, he'll win, or lose where we can all see it and no home town breeding for him. I don't see Hearn or Warren style, who is his manager?

As far as I am aware he is managed by MTK and promoted by Arum.

Just saying, they play it close to the vest. Even if they have a talent, they keep it home. Mike isn't fighting names yet, but when he does he'll be able to go get the money. Take Flanagan, for instance. He can box and has good size, but he's going to wait for the money to come to him. He's still waiting.

I think I'm right in saying that MC has a clause in his contract that allows him a fight in Belfast & Dublin a couple of times a year. "March 17 isn't far away"!

It's apparently in his contract that one of his fights per year must be at home but looks like that's already been missed this year so I am guessing it is for him to be offered one fight at home per year.
