    Still no announcement whether Sky Sports or Boxnation have picked up the broadcast rights for Spence-Peterson.

    Anyone heard anything?

    No. There was a thread about this the other day. Be disappointing if neither get it. Sky may well go for it now they have Khan in that division.

    Didn't warren say that there was a new fight announcement imminent . It might be this. Sometimes nobody gets them but for a subscription boxing channel, it's important to actually show some boxing I think !

    Especially if there is no competition for it.

    I think the new fight announcement is Selby Warrington by the way.

    It'll be sky if it's anyone, since most if not all showtime cards are on sky, whereas hbo cards are split more between boxnation and sky.

    Looks like frank has fcked his Copperbox card and is going to canx.

    So to save abit of face it would be good if BN get this Spence card and try to make a big thing of it.

    If there is no one else in for it and boxnation the dedicated boxing channel don't pick it up it's a disgrace, especially as there had £12.99 of subscribers for January for nothing.

    It's kind of a joke.This should have been announced weeks ago,it's not like it's a PPV Fight in the UK or Anything.This should be on Boxnatiom given Sky dont like Boxing in January.

    I just read his tweet about making an announcement about the card/Tete - and assumed he was pulling it especially as he cancelled the press conference last week.

    Hopefully it’s going ahead and Frank is going to make some proper announcements very shortly.

    Exactly. I’m getting nothing for my money this month, not until the 28th (Linares), anyway. Does my nut in. I’m not even bothered if it’s an obscure card in Bolivia, I just want to watch a bit of boxing.

    I’ve heard St Helens town centre on a Saturday night is good for this.

    This is true. Outside the Spicy Chicken and A to B taxis is where the magic happens.
