    Just off the phone in the conference call with Amir, Asif and Primetime.

    Details of the £14.95 offering are here - http://boxing-ireland.com/20110411_khan_mccloskey_primetime_31.html

    But also the things to note are that Primetime will be using their own (probably sub-contracted) OB unit and providing HBO with pictures for their show.

    Also confirmed is that Khan will be in the ring for 10pm

    ill not be forking out for this fight. The undercard aint good enough and the fight itself isnt worth me spending £17.50.

    only good news is that the broadcast starts at 7.30pm so a lot fo the undercard should be shown.

    the channel will be unscrambled until 8pm

    I asked that specific question but they havent decided on the card yet. the ONLY good thing to come out of it is that Primetime wont have as much "filler" as SKY and will be forced to show more fights.

    The media workout is tomorrow and I will ask them the same question again.

    Is anyone going to cover the Weigh-in/Press conference?

    HBO must be bricking themselves that this works if they're relying on PrimeTime for the pictures!

    so its one fight then amir - surely not for 15 quid

    on air at eight 10-15 mins promotion first fight under way by 2020 - 12 rounds and a verdict takes 55 mins - takes you to 2115 - not time for another 12 rounder before Khan enters.

    2 fights - surely not!!!
