    Thanks for that Achilles .

    I seem to rememver the Maussa performance being a decent one but a lot of people thought it was poor , it'll be good to get a chance to see that fight again .

    IMO fighting on setanta is going to hurt ricky hatton`s profile in the uk .

    if he wants legacy he should have signed his fights to bbc or itv , even channel 4 or 5.

    if he wants money only , and obviously that is the path her has gone down , then its highest bidder and **** who watches.

    I heard the BBC offered money aswel as sky, but he chose to go with Setanta...

    I think he should have took a pay cut and gone wioth the bbc...

    Something to note is that the Hatton v Maussa fight is freeview so presumely all the other things in lead up to the fight are too . So those of you without Setanta can see all the things in the lead up , just not the fight itself .

    Edit:Not all of these are free . I'll post up a complete timetable of free/subscribed stuff and when repeats are on in a few minutes .

    Right , after looking through the EPG we have :
    Freeview:
    Monday: Ricky Hits Vegas: 19:00 , 21:30 , 23:00 . I'm not sure if this is a short build up programme that is new every day or if it's a short documentary . It's only 20 mins long .

    Ricky Hatton v Carlos Maussa: 19:50

    Tuesday:
    Ricky Hits Vegas: 12:30 , 19:30 , 21:30 , 23:00
    Hatton v Maussa: 12:50
    Corrales v Castillo I: 19:50

    Wednesday:
    Ricky Hits Vegas: 12:30 , 19:30 , 23:00
    Corrales v Castillo I: 12:50
    Warriors , a build up programme about Hatton and Castillo: 19:50
    Hatton v Maussa 21:35

    Thursday:
    Ricky Hits Vegas: 12:30 , 19:30 , 23:00
    Warriors:12:50
    Hatton v Maussa: 13:50

    Friday:
    Ricky Hits Vegas: 12:00 , 19:30 , 23:00
    Warriors: 19:00

    Saturday:
    Ricky Hits Vegas:16:30
    Warriors:17:00

    and for those of us subscribed to Setanta we also get:
    Wednesday:
    Corrales v Castillo II: 20:20
    Cotto v Judah: 23:20

    Thursday:
    Corrales v Castillo II: 13:20
    Ricky Hatton Hits Las Vegas- a documentary presumely different from that 20 minute programme(which I'm guessing is a build up programme) . This lasts an hour and a half : 23:30

    Friday:
    Hatton v Collazo 18:00

    Saturday:
    Live- Ricky Hits Vegas , 30 min build up programme: 19:30
    Proper Build up:23:00
    Undercard Starts:00:00
    Main Event: Anytime between 3:30-4:30 I'd say .

    BigEars do you mean the people who aren't signed up to Setanta still get to see the small documentaries?
