    Looks like the usual line up of repeats, Whitaker-McGirt I wasn't on to long ago, pretty sure the same about the rest of ESPNs lineup. No idea if theres more than one episode of Fight Sports Knockouts but would think its all the same episode. Happy New Year and happy viewing.

    Friday 11th added, good news, two cards on, one to be announced, check in a few days for an update.

    Is there anyway we could get a sticky thread at the top or some way to post all fights being shown on Aussie TV like this. This is great.

    Would be good to have this all the time

    Is the sky channel just the sky pubs and clubs channel? Or is it also shown on Sky Racing with Foxtel?

    A quick word about this guide;

    Hey all. At the moment I can only do this every second week. I work week on/week off and whilst at work (which is 600km from home) I have limited internet access and time to follow up whats happening for that week. There is one computer at the minesite I'm at and while some rooms have access for laptops, I don't have one yet. To write this I got up at 3am so I wouldn't be bothered by other people wanting their go.
    I really enjoy doing this guide, since I started I've managed to bother enough people at Sky Channel to get info on whose fighting on the weekly Canvas Classics, and lately they've raised the white flag and given me Matt Brooks' email. I plan to get in contact soon with him and ask for the schedule for the coming month, just thought I'd let him have some of his January off. He may not want to correspond for all I know, if thats the case, back to the Sky switchboards, and I know they dread my calls!
    I've got Fox IQ at home so am able to keep on top things while I'm back with their EPG (Electronic Program Guide) and also via my laptop. Sometimes its hard, for instance last Fridays card was listed as 'Boxing-2hrs', I kept checking every day for around 4 days until finally they announced who it was. Other things like Fight Sports Knockouts I have no idea if they are repeats or new episodes, they just don't announce that sort of thing.
    I'm hoping in the next few weeks I'll be able to once again do this weekly once my room status gets upgraded at work. The secretary has been bribed so fingers crossed.

    The next guide will appear on Thursday 17th. Cheers.

    Hey Leon, i didnt know you had to go through that much of a hassle to do this mate, esp at 3am.
    So thanks for your response mate and the help on the boxing guides.

    When you get on here again, who is matt brooks, does he choose what to show?

    Also good work bribing the secretary lol

    Yeah also everyone TUF 4 is on Tuesday at 7:30pm, on the fox sports channels

    Since I got a new 42" (Well my flat mate did anyways, it might as well be mine) I agree the boxing is better to watch. Been enjoying a lot of these telecasts.

    Thanks for your work Leon. *three cheers*
