It could explain why Haye Vs. Fury is suddenly being mentioned. Channel 5 and Primetime are owned by media mogul Richard Desmond. It was suggested should Fury step up to face a Klitschko the fight would be PPV on Primetime rather than free to air on Channel 5. If the Channel 5 deal is over, it opens the door for Haye Vs. Fury to take place on SKY Box Office.

If Mick Hennessy after tonight is without a UK TV deal once more, maybe SKY will offer him the carrot of some live dates on SKY Sports over the next 12 to 24 months if Haye Vs. Fury happens.
