    And not before time to.

    Though some on here would have you believe that Sky showing the entire undercard is a bad thing for boxing.

    Well done to Sky & Hearn but this should have been done 3 year ago.

    Looking forward to everyone with Virgin moaning for the next fee years!

    You clearly did not understand the perfectly valid point that was made!

    4 round mismatch record builders are fine on a dedicated boxing channel or the red button so the hardcore fan can watch it, but you don't want the casual fan to watch **** boxing. Could also make some fans less likley to attend a card.

    I take it that this is also available on the website/Sky Go?

    Roughly how much of the under card can you see? For example if the show is due to start on Sky Sports 1 at say 9pm, when can you access the undercard, from 8pm?

    7-9 on the red button then normal SS1 from 9 mate.
    The tickets say the card starts at 6pm so there'll only be 2 no mark fights not shown I'm guessing.

    I haven't seen Ringside yet but I suspect it would be the whole card. The whole card is being filmed anyway so why not broadcast it? This seems a move to counter Boxnation showing full cards and a sensible one from all involved.
