    When i say slowly ,i use it in the sense that to my knowledge the deal hasn't actually officially ended has it?

    Yet nothing for a long time has been aired ITV are terrible when it comes to promoting anything other than crap reality TV

    Nuro is on about PDC darts, not PBC boxing.

    At least, I think that’s what you’re referring to.

    Amazon are geared towards ony spending money on sports content with known marketable names. By all accounts they would only enter boxing if they had a couple of named fighters to build cards around. No disrespect to Mick but they he has nobody of interest to them. If Amazon came into boxing it would likely only be with Hearn or a promoter that has a couple of decent size names.

    I actually think if someone like Sauerland came in a swept up fighters that only have minimal ties and created a stable like , Eubank, Joyce, Usyk, Frampton, Galahad, Callum Johnson, Ohara Davies, Riakporhe, Eggington, Hughie Fury. There is an opportunity to grab a big deal with someone like Amazon.

    PDC is still on ITV. Are you getting confused with PBC?

    Yeah they have some of the lesser stuff on itv for free to air coverage. Any of the big snooker or darts is on sky or Eurosport/BBC. Sky and matchroom are very intertwined and on great terms. Do you think fishomania is on sky because it sell subscriptions?!

    Hearn told us that DAZN would have 3 PPV style events every year.

    He told us Charlo, Spence and all of the PBC fighters will want to fight on DAZN.
