    Froch responded to the campaign on his twitter account saying thanks for the support i hope my next fights on sky (something along those lines). at that stage he was still with hennesey and they were negotiating with other channels.

    I apologise again but I thought Big Dunk meant Boxing fans were the sole reason but how do you know his old promoter Hennessy weren't the reason Froch didn't join SKY earlier??

    I think the Khan situation is more likely to have had an effect on it

    Be great for him to get some belated TV money that he should have got a long time ago and line his retirement fund...:good

    Best back to back CV for any British fighter that I can think of...:deal

    Could have a point with regards to Khan's situation helping Froch get on sky.

    I don't really take notice of this sorta stuff....anyone know the current situation with Khan and Sky?...is there any way back for him on there platform?

    Going by the fact they still reviewed his fight on Ringside, Im pretty certain he'll be back on Sky, tho with his team you never know.

    Froch will be taking a paycut from PT to go on regular sky.

    To be fair to Froch, it doesn't seem like its just about the money to him because he was prepared to give away 1/4 mil to ShowTime so he could get the Johnson fight in Nottingham. It just seems like he wants to appeal to the wider public.
