    Does anyone know whether this fight will be broadcasted here in the UK? Have SkySports announced anything?

    Thanks.

    But seriously, will I have to resort to dodgy online streaming?

    It sure does look that way as it hasn't been reported that any channel is showing it and i think its too late to expect an announcement now.

    hmm, in that case I don't think I'll be putting myself through the long task of trying to stay up for a shitty online stream. Guess I'll just wait a couple of days for a decent download. Thanks anyway :good

    So, Primetime can get Holyfield v Botha and charge £6 for it. But they can't even get Hopkins v Jones which no other broadcaster in the UK has bid for?

    Dunno. You could check the five other threads that have asked the same question?
