Froch fight not on TV ?

That can't be right. How can they not show this fight on UK TV?

 

How do you mean? not on any British channel?? I can't see them allowing that, possibly early negotiations not going well.

 

I heard they are still bidding for it here. I'm near sure that setanta have it with all the coverage they are giving it, but its hard to tell as they do it with most fights.

 

someone needs to buy this. **** it, i would PPV this one,.

 

would be fairly unbelieveable if this didn't get shown. :roll:

setanta or sky should end up snapping it up.

 

yea, it's got to be early negotiations. I think the story might come from ITV not buying, they are making serious cut backs from near top to bottom. After Pascal they have probably been asked if they are showing this latest fight.

 

it was only a couple of days before the fight that setanta done a deal for jennings v cotto so i reckon they will still get this

 

source??

 

edit

 

time of fight and money for fight must be out of ITV's budget for boxing, they prob never expected froch to get this far

they might have some sort of contract similar to warrens for jennings and if setanta want this they might have to fork out some bills to ITV

 

this a real step back for everyone we need as many fights aspossible on domestic channels as its good for the sport as it attracts new fans froch has done superbly for itv it makes no sense them not showin its like chasing a bird for weeks buying her a couple of bags takin her to dinner meetin her family and then when she says fancy a blow job goin no ive got some stapling to do!

 

Aren't Setanta and ITV closely related in some way?

As far as I was aware Hennesey has a deal with ITV to show Froch's fights. I'll be very surprised if this isn't on ITV.

 

This is actually impossible, theres no way the fight is not on in UK. If it isn't I will cut my own ***** off and feed it to a German cannibal, live on webcam. It will go to ITV I think, he has been promoting it alot on there.
