    don't think sauerland deal kicks in unti next year ... so doubt we'll see valuev v holyfield.
    don't think setanta could get options on Manny v Oscar cos Top rank must not have overseas rights, that must have been Golden Boy. Shame.
    Great news though.

    im pretty certainn that a couple of months ago i heard that prescott had signed for a promoter based in europe and he was from germany.

    if setanta get a deal with this guy then they have the future of boxing, golden boy fighters don't fight each other often, the only golden boy vs golden boy fight i can see happening is marquez vs hatton, which wouldn't be on setanta anyway so it looks good.

    so were going to get at least 1 shows a week on setanta. 2 a month from top rank, 1 from Hayemaker, 1 from germans and maybe another fight picked up along the way.

    yeh the guy is now ranked in the top 10 by most of the alphabets, has come of the biggest win of his career. instead of warren seeing an opportunity to put prescott in some great fights to make undercards more intresting, he wants to put him in with guys like barrie jones.

    Setanta are a breath of fresh air, not just the boxing but the other sports they show as well. Sky Sports has been shite for years in my opinion, and I dont now if its just me but none of skys boxing excites me at all.
