Do you think Sky will show the tournament

Yes............they.............will :fire

 

they probably will. expect them to start showing more US boxing from september.

 

What about the new proppsed itv box office channel ?mmmm

 

:huh First I've heard of this.

 

Source mate?

 

I take the first paragraph of the article that I have provided a link for as an indication that it will be shown on Sky. As we all know, Sky Sports' website is only ever used as a platform to advertise and plug the fights that they are showing. Sometimes, if we are lucky, the odd story is about fighters not on Sky. By the way this article is worded, it looks like we won't have to watch the tourney on dodgy streams:

Interesting.....

 

It'll never happen.


Okay, I'm now reading the article.................but I still can't see it happening.

 

i read somewhere that sky and a few other networks have chipped in with the tournament and will show it.

 

So ITV go PPV.....

Would like to see the formal proposal for this....ie pricing, platform
I mean would they purchase an slot on freeview in order to show the events ?? :huh

 

The thing is with showetime being a us station,they will have the fights on at a time that suits the american market so i would imagen the earliest the fight would be starting at 2am at the earliest,this will not appeal to uk tv's as they wont get as many viewers at that time compared to earlier time slots etc .

 

hope so this tourny is going to be mint! cant wait for it, the best vs the best

 

it seems that showtime have put Mick Hennesey in charge of finding a UK TV deal for the tournement.
