    A card of that magnitude(2 European title fights + highly rated prospect Ali Chebah) should get tv coverage in France. I don't know whether Canal+ show any boxing or just Acaries stuff but if they show everything there would be a reasonable chance it'd be on that.

    Europsort I suppose would be a possibility aswell, and if it was shown on that there'd be a good chance it would be shown on British Europsort(what we recieve) too.

    The only thing giving it a slim chance of being on Sky is it's on a Friday, there's currently no UK boxing scheduled that day and the card it decent. But I wouldn't be overly hopeful of them showing it.

    I have to admit I'm worried about McCloskey. I feel he is definitely good enough to get a decision over M'Baye in Ireland or at a neutral venue. In M'Baye's back yard, he will have to knock him out. M'Baye hasn't been stopped before and McCloskey isn't a huge puncher. I can imagine a close fight that will end up being scored 117-111 for M'Baye, with everyone complaining saying it was much closer. The only positive is that it's a vacant title so the judges won't be favouring any fighter because they are the champion (we saw what that resulted in when Dunne fought Cordoba).
