BRITISH BOXING’S only female promoter is fighting to get the sport back on the BBC.
Susannah Schofield OBE invested thousands of her own pounds to get her Unified Promotions show on in Rotherham’s Magna Carta arena last month.
And the former Royal Mail director delivered the card to the BBC’s iplayer platform, in the hope of convincing the terrestrial giant to return to the sport.
Casual fans and broadcasters get turned off when the biggest mega-money fights fall through because of doping scandals or clashing egos and companies.
But the trailblazer for women’s business has seen enough of the sports positive side to know she wants to help return it to our primetime screens and she’s ready to KO some of the dusty old scams that are holding the sport back.
