Is the boxing drying up on Premier Sports already?

I didnt even notice that - it is a good move - I miss my boxing on a Friday night:good

 

From Facebook:

"Premier Sports: Dear Mr G. Shaw... Please let us broadcast your fight in the UK to keep our boxing fans happy!"

 

is this seriously what they did?

 

Thats got to be a joke from the poster!! No way would man..

 

yes they did...just checked their FB. Rob Palmer has already responded

 

personally i'll give them till the end of January and then review how many fights they have shown and if its been worth the subscription.

 

they have responded. say they have made an offer but think they want to much money.

 

I just have as well. They are so small time. The only reason to write that is to look like it's gary shaw's fault for over charging. That may well be the case but what a **** thing to write as a status update. Doesn't fill me with confidence.

 

they say there max offer would be 20% of what the promoters want.

 

the guy from Premier Sports private messaged me asking about various australian fights and what I thought of them. told him i would rather see 1 big fight a month than 10 of those.

 

They at the moment are in a no win situation. They need a UK Promotor with only Hennessey free if he were to go to them then maybe they will get more fights from the US as more people may well sign up to Hennesseys fighters. I know they showed 1 of his cards already so whos to say that the 2 wont do a deal together.

 

Because they would have to be the host broadcaster for a Hennessy show, which would cost them a fortune to produce, or a fortune to hire an outside company to produce. They've already said it wouldn't be worth it.

 

Williams vs Martinez will be on.
