Great news for the UK fans. Although PBC matchmaking is supreme garbage, more free boxing is always a win for the fight fans.
It's not all going to be free though. ITV has it's own PPV channel, ITV Box Office. I'm expecting them to kick things off with Eubank vs Degale and that will definitely be PPV.
Good stuff. Would be sweet if they brought back the old theme. Of course, no chance we would get the likes of Eubank vs Benn free today. This content is protected
ITV ain't getting no money of me to watch a Instagram boxer versus a shot Degale. It should be billed "When Ego's collide"
Fricken awesome, another sign that boxing is booming in the UK, didn't think I'd see boxing shown regularly on one of the big channels ever again.
First couple of months will feature: Manny Pacquiao vs. Adrien Broner Keith Thurman vs. Josesito Lopez (WBA Welterweight Title) Adam Kownacki vs. Gerald Washington Leo Santa Cruz vs. Miguel Flores (WBA Featherweight Title) Errol Spence vs. Mikey Garcia (IBF Welterweight Title)
So does that mean its primarily just the american cards? as if its 15 shows a year and they show all of those cards they wont have any dates for UK fights? Are they signing anyone from the UK as they only have a couple of UK based fighters signed to them.
I don't think this will influence haymon to sign more uk fighters, its just basically getting PBC on uk TV
