    Pffft. More people saw Kid Galahad and Chris Junior. :yep

    It's good stuff though. Hopefully this encourages people to make more decent domestic fights.

    Fantastic. Shows what can be done with good promoting

    Would like to see Sky do a 3 title fight card with a US leg every month.

    really? Higher than the days of Naz. Well I suppose there are more subscribers now.

    Great ratings and Sky really see Kell brook as the future star. Props to all those involved in the promotion and marketing to make this such a success.

    Frank must be pissed. James Degale must think what happened as he was the potential star and the sooner he leaves frank the better.

    440k. Good job this wasnt on boxnation hey.

    I'd love to know what VVarren thinks of it all. I'd love to see someone from Ifilm London or perhaps Elle Seckback (sp) just stick it on him

    Let's hope Eddie Hearn can work the same magic on Froch-Bute. Would be great for Carl to get a similar level of exposure on the Sky platform.

    Yep. That's my hope too, Juke. That it entices and encourages other people to do the same.

    This gives British boxing a big boost, if sky decide British boxing is worth investing in.

    Froch/Bute should hopefully get more if it's marketed right. My hope is that this kick starts the likes of Quigg/Frampton and Macklin/Barker to happen on regular sky sports later this year.
