Is there still no sign of ESPN showing any boxing?

    Think they'll be showing the Friday Night Fights (when they start back up in January) from the U.S wont they? Probably on a day delay or something.

    Nothing domestic wise though I don't think.

    ESPN won't do anything which treads on Sky's toes.

    Rumour is that a big reason the UFC was there for ESPN was that the Sky-WWE deal contains a clause prohibiting Sky showing UFC.

    eff knows why but there you go

    I'm not to impressed with Espn. As for them having boxing i think someone mentioned that there will be some live Friday fight nights from next month as for that i'd give up any hope of them showing any live boxing as they don't seem to committed to anything.

    The channel was just a vehicle to pick up the spare Premiership games left over from Setanta going bust. Most of the rest of the programming is just padding to fill air time.
