The New and Improved Boxing on TV thread!

From Ringside:

"Sky Sports has signed an exclusive deal with Golden Boy Promotions to broadcast big bills from across the atlantic"

Devon Alexander v Marcos Maidana
Adrien Broner v Eloy Perez
Feb 26th Live 3am Sky Sports HD1

Erik Morales v Danny Garcia
March 25 Live 2am Sky Sports HD1

Sergio Martinez v Matthew Macklin
Kell Brook v Matthew Hatton
Also featuring Grzegorz Proksa (EBU Middleweight Title)
Also featuring Carl Frampton
March 17 Live Sky Sports HD (exact channel TBA)

Wladimir Klitschko v Jean Marc Mormeck
March 3 Live 8pm Sky Sports HD1

Also it was strongly implied Victor Ortiz v Andre Berto will be on Sky Sports in the summer.

I guess that Floyd Mayweather v Miguel Cotto will also be on Sky Sports as this is a Golden Boy Promotions fight.

 

What Channel do you think this bill will be on?

Feb. 18

At Corpus Christi, Texas (Showtime): Paul Williams vs. Nobuhiro Ishida, 12 rounds, junior middleweights; Tavoris Cloud vs. Gabriel Campillo, 12 rounds, for Cloud's IBF light heavyweight title; Cristobal Arreola vs. TBA, 10 rounds, heavyweights

 

It's on Setanta in Ireland, which suggests it will be on Premier over here. Not a definite though.

Looks like Williams v Ishida is on Premier Sports. Delayed coverage.

 

I presume boxnations big fight announcement early next week will be the pacquiao fight. Can't see sky buying both mayweather and pacquiao fights within a month of each other. Hope primetime doesn't get either costing me enough to watch the boxing at the minute without payin another €17.95

 

Premier Sports

19th Feb Williams vs Ishida
7th March Geale vs Adama
25th March Judah vs Paris

On official site

 

Cheers lads.

 

whoever is listing all these events should also add the "ESPN Friday Night Fights" cards to this list as well.

thanks for listing what's there already... very useful

 

No problem mate. :good

The reason I don't have the FNF's in advance is because they're a little unreliable. Over the last 3 weeks only 1 of them has been shown live so I wait until they're listed on SKY to put them on the schedule.

 

Well, that's a fair point. ESPN America are quite unreliable and treating these boxing events and us fans with zero respect... they cut to adverts before the rounds end & have dodgy start times, many times starting their coverage late.

I understand why you don't list them! but I thought it'd be cool if you did list them.

Cloud vs Campillo and Williams vs Ishiada is on premier sports sunday morning delayed coverage.

 

Already on the list, Bobby.
