    i heard a while ago that sky were going to show boxing on saturdays ,i think it was a once a month deal, itv are back in the black and aparently will start to show uk fights again, bbc is run by a woman who thinks boxing is barbaric, i beleive theirs plenty been trying to disuade her , without success, but good on yer mr warren i hope he gets plenty of deals with tv, and they lay the law down, regarding quality matches, so everybody benifits alround.

    I get ESPN free as well but unlike Setanta before them ESPN have the money to compete with Sky for the football. Also with them being on the Sky platform they can reach out to the Sky market. Sky wont have it all there way next time around and after this 3 year deal the next deal will be the biggest deal in premiership history for the rights for the matches.

    Well, I don't know the latest on Warren, but I have heard that an additional (to the status quo) promoter has a tv deal and I believe it will be an excellent addition too.

    Lets just say what Frank Warren is doing is very,very risque but i feel it will open boxing up for the masses ,and hopefully inspire a new generation of fans .

    I find it intrueging ,but i do think that the manner in which coverage will be offerd a tad naive
