    Does anyone know what TV channel will be showing this fight in the UK? I believe the original fight was scheduled on Eurosport - will this be the case again?

    Given that Sky have little interest in Wlad and Boxnation rarely seem to show everything before 1am anymore Eurosport would seem the likeliest place to watch this fight.

    It would be great if Eurosport did pick up on this, and it's exactly the sort of fight they should pick up on.
    Two European fighters that don't have worldwide appeal to the casuals, not a megafight.
    Eurosport has always been a disappointing channel but many people have access to it. I for one have had it for over 10 years and never think to tune in. Would do for this though.
    BT need to start showing some live boxing on their sports channels too.

    Not 100% certain but wasn't the last boxing event Eurosport showed a Sanigar event in Merthyr Tydfil? Lol

    Fury chisora will be in line for a shot of the winner (aka wlad), in fact the more I think about it box nation should deffo get the fight

    I'm looking forward to it! Pulev has a great chance, IMO.

    It looks like Eurosport are making a bold statement and showing their hand. They mean business in boxing now. Their going to take on the big boy Sky sports as well as Boxnation and go all out for all the big fights. What a statement of intent this is grabbing the rights to this major fight to see who is the unified champion of the sport.

    This extra competition can only be good for the fans, good for the fans = good for the sport, good for baxing.

    And Cleverly vs Belly II is PPV in the UK :lol:
    I can't imagine what this complaining is all about. I used to watch all kinds of fights on Eurosport back in the day, and I think it's great they're showing a big fight again.

    Klit may pull out and postpone the fight again due to a broken fingernail.

    The excuse for pulling out of the original date was farcical.

    Get Wilder in there to test him for 2 rounds - the rest are simply gash.

    Boxnation only show domestic gash before midnight every 3rd Sat.

    This fight is no elimator for Wlad's next fight and Chisora and Fury will be lucky to get a shot at Wlad before 2016 given his injury excuses to postpone fights.
