    Eddie Hearn is on course for world domination.

    Soon he will have every UK boxer under his control and will stage shows 365 days a year. There will even be unification fights at 8am on a Tuesday morning.

    Bow down to the KING.

    No TV. If they can get channel 5 or Boxnation then fair play, but Quigg and Munroe surely want to be fighting in front of about 70 thousand viewers on Sky rather then 10,000 on Boxnation.

    I hope Hatton can work something out with Channel 5.

    I'd be surprised if Hatton doesn't get Sky dates if he wants them but if any promoter was going to open up another TV outlet the Hatton name has as good a chance as any. Also wonder if Matchroom may make deals to allow others to use their dates like they have on Friday with Dave Coldwell of have in the past with Mick Hennessey

    Buncey is really ripping SKY on Twitter. He's disgusted at their treatment of Hatton.

    If this is true, it is ****ing sickening move by Sky. Hatton made them absolute bundles when he fought for them over the years. Who else was racking it that sort of cash? And now that his stable is growing, they pull that ***** move? I'd be seriously pissed if I was Hatton

    Ricky should come back and fight Kell Brook. The winner gets 20 dates.

    He needs to calm dowm and not jump the gun.We know that the Munroe-Quigg fight is their last one this season but have no way of knowing if they will get any next season.The article on the scene is speculating that they haven`t but i doubt it myself.

    If this is true then yes Sky have shafted Hatton who's not done too bad as a promoter as well.

    Just this past week...what a fight Crolla/Matthews was!
