Boxing on Foxtel this week - Page 2

LeonMcS · 02-28-2008, 07:39 PM

I'm 90% sure that its an actual card, its listed in the EPG as Big Time Boxing but the longer we go without notification the shorter those odds become. Getting in touch with programming in Fox is harder than finding the holy grail, yet Mat Brooks at Sky Channel goes out of his way to help me every week. Go figure.

Also I've pm'd the mods about reinstating the know your poster thread as a sticky to replace this. I was originally hoping to get this thread stickied as well, but not at the posters thread expense. I've sent two pms now to Chucky, just waiting on the verdict. It was never my intention for the poster thread to be unstickied for this thread, if I'd known this was gonna happen I wouldn't have asked for this one to be stickied. Apologies for the inconvenience caused.

25 minutes out and all the Foxtel listing says is 'Big Time Boxing: An explosive experience for all boxing fans'.
They've really dropped the ball here. I'll post when it starts, will give either the main event or everyones nightmare the news that its the knockouts show.

LeonMcS · 02-29-2008, 03:32 AM

Its a repeat from a few months ago.

Nonito Donaire vs Luis Moldonado

Vernon Forrest vs Michele Piccirillo

Antonio Tarver vs Danny Santiago.

LeonMcS · 02-29-2008, 06:27 AM

Before I forget, special shoutout to Fox8 today for running ads for Mundine vs Hamden. Finger on the pulse there, didn't Collette say she worked for Foxtel?

*

Friday to Monday added, two maybe three cards on, see below. Plus the PPV.

** This was the fight Alan Green pulled out of at the last moment, seems they're showing that card but strangely are also featuring last weeks card as well. What does this mean? If you've been reading these guides long enough you'll realise I have no fucking idea.

*** No card announced but I think its fair to assume its a replay of Kirilov vs Santos. Why won't they mention that in their guides? Hey, they've got your money now so shut up.

Kegsy · 03-03-2008, 11:26 AM

I hope we get that Tim Bradley vs Jose Luis Castillo match. Could be quite interesting, instead of the heavyweight nonsense.

Kegsy · 03-03-2008, 11:27 AM

I cant believe that heavyweight match is a WBC Eliminator.

LeonMcS · 03-03-2008, 07:14 PM

Late edit, Sundays event on Setanta added, 10.30EDST, 8.30WDST.

Marcus · 03-03-2008, 07:25 PM

Iv dropped setana sports, is the Haye fight a PPV? how much?

LeonMcS · 03-03-2008, 08:15 PM

I'm assuming its part of the $14.95 monthly fee, and a quick phone call confirms that. Also IQ subscribers note, this should'nt auto delete after a few days if you record it. Can't confirm that yet, will chase it up, mainly for my own benefit as I'll be away and will only book it if it doesn't disappear after a few days like the Foxtel PPVs.

Kegsy · 03-04-2008, 12:17 AM

With the PPV this sunday they will be televising the main 2 bouts plus the Tim Bradley vs Jose Luis Castillo bout in its entirity.
They may show part or all of the Jameel McCline vs John Ruiz match.

huricn · 03-04-2008, 04:48 AM

LeonMcS · 03-10-2008, 02:40 PM
