    You’d think as a compromise they’d add this on to the PPV. That stacked PPV we were promised.

    Dougie got back to me yesterday. He said the Superfly 2 broadcast came about via cooperation from Tom Loeffler and HBO Boxing and as neither of them are involved this weekend then Ring TV don't have the option for a UK only stream, as much as they'd like to.

    that's a shame don't understand why sky sports just don't put it on their PPV, it would surely help the value of the PPV with alot of fighters pulling out or at least another channel to pick it up like channel 5 or even dave! i don't care what channel it is on as long British fans have an option to see it!!

    With Box Nation's recent changes, not only are we going to miss the Garcia fight, but the Aug' 4th, Kovlev/Bivol show may well slip by.
    We've been spoiled over the past 5 years with the international content from them.
    Looks like it will have to be You Tube from now on, where for some inexplicable reason, the result is often printed on the listing. However, it appears our only way, and beggars can't be choosers!

    Shocked anyone still pays for a Boxnation subscription given the developments this year.

    Unsubscribe and put this Fish TV Turd channel out of its misery.

    Complete fight is on You Tube, plus Luis Ortiz. For a change result isn't on the listing, at last!

    I enjoyed watching Mikey Garcia who is currently one of my favourite fighters to watch. He adapted his style a bit for this fight which shows he can adapt and find another way to win. Never really rated Easter though.

    Steve Bunce did apologise for missing out on the Garcia fight on the Ito - Diaz transmission. The latter turned out to be one of the fights of the year so far. Not to be missed.
    Looks like it's another You Tube viewing this weekend for Kovalev v Alvarez and Bivol, unless there is a late acquisition.

    i truly believe that Steve bunce was lying when he said that because as you said they already signed the diaz fight and they only have one channel and wouldn't be able to move the other fight due to the contract already being signed

    I gave them a pass last week because they were already committed to showing Diaz-Ito but this weekend that time slot is empty so no excuses for not picking up the Kovalev card. I'll be well pissed off if we don't get to see it.

    No sign of Farmer or Dib, no explanation. Povetkin archive fight instead!
