Anyone else mightily pissed off that we're not getting to see Pavlik v Martinez or/and Bute v Miranda in a couple of weeks? Fair play to Sky for picking up the Berto card, must've been cheap as chips and they do like a Berto fight but Pavlik v Martinez has the makings of a real belter and it is for the middleweight championship of the world. Bute v Miranda would've made a nice warm up or delayed show at 8am on the Sunday morning. I know we've talked about this a gazillion times in the past but it's ridiculous. A legitimate, credible, interesting and potentially thrilling fight for the middleweight championship of the world is being ignored. Rant over :fire
Aye, it's a shame, but thats just how things go. Interesting that this Saturday night we have Berto v Quintana on sky, Friday Night Fights on ESPN-on a saturday for some reason, and Holyfield v Botha on Primetime all at the same time. Yet the Pavlik v Martinez and Bute v Miranda double header goes unshown.
Pavlik/Martinez and Bute/Miranda are at different locations under different promotions. Presumably that would mean higher costs to show both than the Berto card. Just speculating.
