    It's gone very quiet- going on previous form Boxnation will only bid for the fight if no one else is interested late on. I still think ITV is a possibility.

    I would prefer it to be on a ppv channel or box nation as no way will itv show the full card id rather pay to see it and see every (almost every) fight

    If were really lucky main event on ITV1 undercard on ITV4 I'm sure they used to do that.

    I think it's channel 5, get Bernstein over from America for Commentary.

    'The cooomeback is about wedemption and most of all about the fans, its always been about the fans for Wicky 'Atton, and nooothing to do with wining me own pockets at the expense of fools. That's why the Lazcano fight was on PPV, and why this cooomeback fight probably will be too'.

    Thanks for the article.

    "There are suggestions that Sky – given their commitments to Hearn - urged Team Hatton to join with their rivals in a co-promotion, thereby aggravating the Hitman still further."

    I wouldn't read too much into that. BoxNation have said that they are after the fight.

    Give this one to the BBC for free, then put Hatton-Malignaggi II on Sky Box Office.

    Sky's policy, as far as we know, they aren't doing boxing PPV.

    And they may not be willing to work with Hatton promotions either, unless they team up with Eddie Hearn.

    I'm split really.

    I think for polish and glitz its got to be Sky.............

    For amount of coverage, build-up and promotion its Boxnation............

    And for the greater good of the sport it has to be ITV, BBC or even Channel 5.

    I think the worst thing for the fight would be Primetime.
