    Channel 5! Might not even bother taping Brook's latest non-fight.

    I'd imagine that the Brook fight will be on before the Eubank/Blackwell fight which I believe is scheduled to start at around 2215hrs.

    Entirely Hearn's call as he wont want them to clash.

    Same here, since the Joshua v Whyte card there's been next to nothing on. Can't wait for the next couple of months when it becomes more regular. Blackwell v Eubank will be on my tele, will probably catch up with the Brook card but won't go out of my way too much.

    Will watch channel 5.

    Has there been much advertising of the fight?
    I tend not to watch too much TV these days but the terrestrial channels should give these shows some build up and previews to build an audience.

    Channel 5,

    Watch the Ward fight Sunday morning. To be honest not interested in the Hearn card, fan of Brook but his career is going no where at the moment.

    Sky+ both. On another TV watch England game due to number of Spurs players

    Then channel 5/Spike show whizz without adverts and padding and then Sky card. If I don't get through it will prepare for a boxing breakfast running into the Andre Ward show

    Be in Sheffield for the Brook card, so have the C5 card on record - hoping for a Blackwell victory. Can't see it but I do like the kid, throw back he is!!

    Channel 5 without doubt - Mick always delivers good fights and hopefully he gets a deal with Sky as Hearn produces dog shyte month in month out.

    Easy choice, Blackwell. Absolutely no interest in the Brook exhibition appearance.

    Mmmmmmm a potential war or a 2 or 3 round blowout? Tough decision it really is

    We will get the same old rubbish Saturday from Matchroom and Sky.

    Before the fight all the pundits saying "has Brook took his eye off the prize with this one" and the old "Is Brook looking past Bizier" trying to rattle up some interest and justify a another poor defence.

    Then comes the Brook love fest, Nick Halling shouting "World Class" every time Brook throws a shot, Jim Watt going through his list of usual phrases.

    Then after Brook wins, we will have Brook and Hearn side by side saying they want the best in the division, they will have a couple of sly digs at Khan and then Hearn talking about Brook being in a HUGE fight in the summer... Like he has said for the last couple of years but he will trot the same old rubbish out again and Sky will lap it up and bang up on the screen a list of top 10 welterweights and go through them one by one saying "That's a great fight, a huge stadium fight" and the night will end with the usual "Brook Vs Khan is what we all want to see".

    It's predictable, boring and I'm past caring about the ridiculous Brook show, so in answer to the question, I'll be tuned in to Channel 5.
