    Apparently mcdonnell's promoter was asking for too much money from sky.

    Don't people normally give Sky **** for not talking about fights they don't show?

    It`s a good thing that they have Mcdonnell in the studio,Ringside has improved alllot when it comes to talking about all fighters and not just Sky fighters, they used to get stick for not talking about non Sky fighters before and rightly so.Boxnation as the dedicted boxing channel are the ones who should be showing this fight,Sky already have the Burns fight for that date, what has Boxnation got?Would you prefer Sky to ingnore Mcdonnell?

    Sky could make Mayweather v Pacquiao with Klitscko v Haye on the undercard at the 02 on a free pass weekend and people would slag them off.

    Have BoxNation, on there 24/7 Boxing Channel done any interviews with Hobson/McDonnel, discussed the fight at any point on the numerous shows which make up the BoxNation schedule?

    1. They can only afford to show fights that increase there subscriber base.
    2. Frank hates Hobson.

    1. I can understand,they have backed away from allot of domestic fights other then the big names like Khan/Price and only the hardcore know Mcdonnell,still a shame that they couldn`t show this fight.
    2.It would be a shame if that had anything to do with it
