Once again, I don't believe a single word of this. Mayweather has a contract with Sky to air his fights. And for the record I will never ever pay for anything off Primetime
It's in Boxing Monthly, coming from Schaefer. You don't think he would know about any contract you know about?
Obviously he would do pal and I appreciate that but I remember Sky and Mayweather bigging up the contrat he had not too long ago so until it's confirmed (doesn't it say in BM they've been offered it) then I'm not believing it. And I still won't buy nothing from them
this is disgraceful sky seem happy to screen trippe such as canter banter and fish o mania and pour money into ****ing darts which is barely a sport yet wont support boxing anymore its an absolute farce
Caught some of that fish-o-mania flicking through the channels, some people have far too much time on their hands.
You are pretty much on the mark sort of. It doesn't lead to competition because it isn't something they will compete on at 4am. They put in their offer of what they consider it's worth to them, if they go elsewhere then so be it. Bit of Rob Palmer to finish off on... It's only £15 to the customer. 5,000 buys * £11/£12 (VAT) = £55,000. Divide by 2 assuming Primetime continue their 50/50 split rate.. £27,500... I think Mayweather spends that on a nights betting.
I do remember sky signing a deal with Mayweather so will be interesting to see what happens. For the record, if it does air on Primetime I wont pay for it. There shitty channel wont get a penny from me.
Doesnt mayweather do his promotion deals fight by fight? Didnt think he had a exclusive contract with GBP, and negotiated fight by fight???
If Audley carries the can for ****ing up the BBC's interest in boxing, is it too far a stretch to lay the blame for this latest **** up from Sky on that twat Haye? 2 totally **** PPV's and 2 **** poor efforts on both occasions. I'm giving the Ruiz fight a pass. I'm happy sticking the blame on Dave until he lets Vitali beat his teeth out but with the caveat it's non PPV. **** Primtime, **** Haye and **** Sky for their effort in letting Mayweather slip away if it turns out to be true. FFS :deal
Have Sky took a pass on the mayweather vs ortiz fight or have GBP gone all childish and decided to punish sky for not showing Khan on PPV.
