    Lol so Sky advertised Eubank in a PPV trailer when he’s not even signed for the show...

    Pretty sure that’s false advertisement.

    PPV... are there any Saturday Night Fights anymore? Once upon a time you used to get a British title fight headlining a card every other week and they were absolute burn-barners.

    Think back to the days of Gary Sykes, Derry Matthews, Kevin Mitchell.

    Whyte v Parker is a decent fight, it really is. But we used to get 'decent' fights as part of our regular subscription. Pfft.

    Class wasn't it. Fights like Jamie Moore v Ryan Rhodes and other crackers. Admittedly we would sometimes get a dud (Smith vs Quigley comes to mind) but it was free and a good watch on a Friday / Saturday night.

    It's not free, your funding it through your Sky Sports Subscription.Stop falling for the Hearn talk. As if you're somehow privallaged to get good Boxing Fights on a Saturday Night on Sky Sports. It's not a privilege, it should be expected as part of your subscription to the service

    I
    I'm pretty sure also Sky advertise Anthony Joshua under Sky Sports. When knowing full well, his fights are only available on Sky Sports Box Office. Meaning you have to pay a extra £20 for the privallage of watching Anthony Joshua Fight.

    Agreed! We had some top stuff on sky at least 1 or 2 fridays a month, Colin lynes always comes to mind. And even the prize fighter was fun with the heavyweights when rogan won. I even had the free prizefighter t shirt that they gave away on this website at the time, took about a month to arrive though.

    Definitely room in the market and on sky for ‘Friday night fights’ at York hall once a month with a British title fight topping the bill, it’s a great venue aswell. Maybe they are happy with what they’ve got

    Eddie is a good enough promoter to have sold this as a stand alone PPV (which it’s not). He’s dropped a bollock by promising a stacked card and it’s blew up in his face. Only positives I can pull from it is that it is a good fight! And that the show does go on whereas some of Franks over the past few months have been pulled.
