The website is not listing it as a Sky Sports event but is now also listing the Ortiz vs. Berto fight. Let's not jump to conclusions before something's properly announced - this could just be Sky forcing the price down on the Ortiz/Berto card to keep it as a ppv.
Skybet now has it as Sky Sports 3. It was definitely listed as Box Office on there earlier because I looked.
Yes it is - in the upcoming fights list. A list that is always only fights being shown on Sky. But yeah it is updated on SkyBet as being shown on Sky Sports 3. Yeeesh that's gotta sting for Khan.
That's the fixtures list, a fairly random selection of upcoming fights. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12947,00.html That is their live schedule. According to the Sky Programme info site, there is a 2 hour block from 9-11 listed as TBA. Looks like we are just getting the usual 2 hour Saturday Fight Night for it. Watson v Purdy then the main event probably.
Sigh we have this argument every time Its not a random list of upcoming fights - any fight they do not expect to broadcast they don't put on the list.
Surely it would do the opposite - whereas before the costs of broadcasting Khan/McCloskey would be met from the ppv revenue now they will have to use part of the general boxing budget.
Please show me fights on the list that they didn't show - I mean FFS fights tend to disappear when discussions break down.
