    Did not realise Tysons fight coincided with other TV cards. Bit daft or just a bad coincidence?

    Mick seems very single-minded and in my opinions likes to have his own TV deal. He will likely go to Primetime. In the long-term Primetime is a bad choice unless they get a fight with Wladimir. The best thing for Mick to do is to get a multi-fight deal with BoxNation.

    As you say, April 20th is a packed night of boxing. With Fury fighting abroad BoxNation should buy the feed and squeeze it on during Frank's show. This will be a good move for both BoxNation and Mick.

    Mick would be better of striking a co-promotion deal with Hearn for Fury fights to be on Sky. Similar to what he has done with Coldwell, Woods and offered to Maloney for Price.

    I'd like to see the Fury fight land on Sky but I just don't see it.

    Wouldn't be the worst thing if Hennessy ends up on Boxnation if it meant it'd add some depth to the schedule.

    Isn't the fight at 11pm UK time? They could show the Rose card from 8pm and then cross to the US.

    I don't think Mick and Fury would want to work with Eddie Hearn.
     
  8. BT could see it as a way to dip its toes into boxing maybe?

    Just will have to wait 2-3 month for the channel to start

    Fury will likely find himself a TV deal- the only other terrestrial broadcaster who has money to invest at this time is Channel 4. Which channel are Fury's fights shown on in Ireland?

    If there's no tv in uk could Fury stay out in states ive noticed on twitter they've been pushing the Irish connection pretty hard
