    I asked this in the TV thread. No idea now, imagine they will show highlights of Theophane v ??? and Edwards v Bayaar when they come on air to 11 and then head off to the US for the undercard and the Khan fight

    3 cards falling apart. I hate it when this **** happens in boxing and mma. this wouldn't happen in the ufc though as the card is stacked and someone would step in. boxings not built like that unfortunately.

    Nah, HBO are on air at 2.45 with a Cotto v Margarito rerun and Seth Mitchell v Timur Ibragimov first. Unless that ends up as a very early KO it won't be starting before 4.

    On the Sky advert last night they advertised it as an 8.30 start and billed two British Title Fights, without mentioning any fighters.

    Well, it’s had a busy few weeks – expensive too and it’ll want to save up for Christmas. So, probably a quiet night tonight with a few drinks and a cuddle with the other half.

    Tomorrow’s going to be a late one, so Sky will probably have a long lie and just do some housework, ready for Khan coming on. Sunday will be spent, like all Murdoch’s children, devoutly following the church’s teachings and having a day of rest, especially now The News of the World is gone.

    Hmmm… other than the anti-Murdoch bit at the end, I thought that was quite affectionate. I’m just playing on the way Barlow asked the question.

    I won’t get drawn into another Sky debate. The only reason I wouldn’t pay for it is because that money funds Murdoch’s dark desires for a single source of media.
