From what I understand, Duco boss David Higgins former business partner split off and started a direct rival boxing promotions company with Sky Arena. Using the Super 8 format they began to sign fighters similar to how Duco have done with their stable. Sky's Super 8 format fell over much earlier than expected leaving Hemi (their prize fighter) without a platform to fight. He's now being pushed onto other cards to help promote him, but I never thought they would swallow their pride and put him on their direct and more successful rival's card (that being Duco). Correct me if I'm wrong?

Yes, that would be John McRae, who posts on here sometimes.

Bit premature to write SUPER 8 off - we'll be rolling another one out soon. We will only be promoting two shows a year in New Zealand. As a stand alone company we now have more freedom and flexibility in how we operate in the market. I have always taken a collaborative approach to business and we always work in the best interests of those signed with us.

Hemi's gonna be a star, I hadn't realized he'd signed with anybody exclusively.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not bagging it, quite the opposite. I'm impressed that Hemi is being put on a rival card to promote him. It's truly a case of putting the fighter first! And I'd love to see the Super 8 back, I just read earlier this year that there would be three more so having not heard anything I assumed it was all over. Good to hear!
