Mayweather not on Sky

That's 50,000 too many.

 

Sky have yet to let the fight fans down when it comes to the fights of Money or Pacman and I cant see them letting a rival station take that off them. Money talks and Sky has a lot to play around with.
People go on about Primetime but there nobodies who dont give a **** about boxing. Sky has had more competition in the past from Setanta until they went bust. Look at Skys rival now for showing fights and it isnt Primetime its Premier Sports who over the last 7 months has shown more fights than Primetime. Its stations like Premier that needs boxing fans support over Primetime. For your subs with Premier they will be able to show more fights and your subs for a month of Premier costs less than a Khan PPV and you might end up getting 2 fights a month not bad value.

 

For a business that relies on subscribers that is a massive number! No way you allow that to leave your business. Sky, much as it pains me to say it, do a pretty good job with boxing.

Sure I'd like more international fights, but they put on a lot of domestic stuff and actually give the events the weight they deserve. And they've got wee Barry now, which makes it even better.

 

50,000 at what? £45 a month? £27M a year........

Schaefer said it apparently.

 

Hope this isnt true. Only absolute top cards should be PPV.

Khan vs Salita (1st rd tko)
Haye vs Harrison
Haye Vs Klitschko

While I understood the Haye vs Klitschko card being PPV the others just arent worth it. Why would Khan expect his fight with McCloskey to be a PPV??????? Crazy.

Mayweather knows how big Sky is. Whenever hes talking about the UK he mentions them, he does interviews with them and he goes to the studio.

Who in their right mind enjoys paying 15 pounds on top of your subscription?

Mayweather will have this on Sky regardless of what GBP want. Doubt it will be PPV either just like Mayweather vs Marquez, Mayweather vs Mosley, Pacquiao vs Cotto, Pacquiao vs Margarito etc.

 

All this talk of Mayweather won't want this, Mayweather won't want that, remember that with Victor Ortiz being a Golden Boy fighter, this fight will be internationally distributed by GBP and nothing will go through Mayweather Promotions in regards to TV outside of the U.S.

 

Can't see Primetime outbidding Sky, if Sky wanted, they would have it. So before blasting Primetime, think about that.

 

Still not buying anything through Primetime until they get rid of the ludicrous connection fee and start showing a few more fights free of charge.

 

Sky will get this fight, no doubt, they've been building up Mayweather and the Khan fight has been planned, Mayweather/Khan then Mayweather/Pacquiao will make sky a fortune, course they're gonna show Mayweather/Ortiz!
