    Good stuff- I suspect the international content will be on ITV4 with perhaps Joe Joyce being on ITV1 until he faces someone decent. The rest of the domestic cards might be on PPV however.

    I think Poxon will work with Mick to get Hughie Fury on the ITV platform as well- especially if they want to build the Fury/Joyce fight.

    You don't have to for these two fights at least. I'm delighted, a free to air outlet for some of the great US based fights that may otherwise not be available. Can't be good news for boxnation I guess.

    Look who failed to click on a link and instead spouted off stuff making himself look silly!

    More bad news for box nation.

    Word on the street is we will be getting Degale v Eubank Jr on ITV PPV January or early February.

    Think with all the hype, Eubank Jr v Groves did good numbers earlier this year so kind of makes sense. Saying that don’t think this will do as well for obvious reasons.

    Awful start - a fight between 2 fighters currently nowhere near the elite levels on Box Office.

    ITV simply a pile of turd that will disappear from the boxing scene yet again after another false interest in boxthing

    Pac is about 50 years old now and Broner will probably get arrested or something anyway. Doubt there'll be many people staying up to watch it.

    Pac-Broner is on ITV 4 according to the article on the ITV website, I assumed the worst too when I saw the tweet was from ITV Box Office but this is one is free.

    Original pbc/itv deal announcement said so but record it to be on safe side. On my sky box i used the RF out to 'pipe' sky upstairs. Used the app on phone to change channels etc. When i switched to virgin i got a 2nd box put in bedroom for cheaper than the one box under sky

    They’ll draw us in with the free fights and then hit us with Eubank v Degale on PPV.
