Premier Sports- Facebook We have lost the signal to the live Daniel Geale event from Australia due to the promoter being unhappy that illegal streams were being made available on the back of this. We will attempt to bring in the event on delay and show in full next week.

bloke on the Aussie forum saying Premiers Facebook page is talking shite and that they maybe never had rights to air it in the first place. By all accounts only 60 people were viewing it illegally and that wouldn't have been enough to pull the feed.
There is nothing Premier Sports can do to stop it. I don't beleive thats within the rights of the ausie promoter either.
To be fair to Premier Sports, I know they have had threats before when they've shown some of the Aussie cards. They obviously pay hardly **** all for the rights so when they see a few streams going up they wonder why it's worth it. A bunch of people that know **** all about boxing or anything then all huddle round and just decide to cut it out and let someone else deal with the consequences after. I don't have Premier Sports any more, but I'd be pretty pissed if I did and wanted to watch this.
:rofl @ this. I read in Aussie forum last night that they have fake weigh in's for the camera's then a real one later on .
Something to do with News Channels not being interested after certain times or something like that. I thought guy was having a wind up till someone confirmed it. That's as good as the Aussie ref who got pissed and abused people at weigh in a few years back :rofl.
