    Decent fight. Vasquez is getting on but still a tricky fighter.

    Firstly, are MTK shows still being broadcast on Boxnation ? I haven't seen one for a while. Secondly, will Vasquez pull out a week before and get replaced by a Hungarian ?

    They've streamed stuff recently on IFL TV, not sure if that will continue.

    MTK have an amazing talent pool of fighters with managerial contracts, if they start getting some of them to sign promotional deals they could easily compete with Hearn / Warren

    Hearn and Warren have their exclusive deals with Sky and BT sport respectively. Barring a new player (ITV?) entering the boxing platform market their room for manoever on this side of the Atlantic is limited.

    Yeh they dont need to at the moment. to be with mtk is really good. You get plenty of tickover fights in the small hall cards. and if your with hearn or warren you get on tv as well. ALot of their fighters are getting alot of fights now because of ifl tv and when they said its going to be 26 shows a year, i thought it was like warrens comments but it looks like they are telling the truth

    So MTK stands for Mac The Knife who, I believe, is Matthew Macklin. What role does he play in this organisation or is he just a figurehead ? Or am I totally wrong ? They used to be MGM didn't they ? Macklin Gym Marbella. What happened to that ?

    Apparently he sold up last year, not really sure what share of the company he had or if he was actually just a figurehead as you suggest . But he confirmed in an interview his involvement has now ended and he sold it.

    I think MTK will get the Sky contract once DAZN get their UK streaming service up and running, no way will they renew with Hearn.

    MTK need to upscale their production but they have plenty of talent to do Sky shows and with better exposure they can sign some top talents.

    It does irritate me that Ohara still won’t accept the defeat to Catterall. If you don’t accept a defeat you don’t really learn from it. Catterall is one of my favourite up and coming fighters. Technically excellent, southpaw, switches angles so well with his footwork. So no shame to losing to him.

    Well we know the kid Davies is a bit of a twit so he wouldn't accept it. He will get another beating at some stage.
