    Well they did an ok job on Sat night in my opinion. So they should put themselves in the mix and whilst they're at it - I know it's one show at a time for PT - but they should put themselves in the mix for Williams v Pavlik (it clashes with the Khan ppv which would make things interesting) and Vitali's next defence.

    Is the Kessler fight the week after Pac v Cotto? Wonder what PT would do there regarding charges if they got both.

    I've no real interest in watching another Vitali snooze-fest, but Pavlik-Williams and Cotto-Pacquaio would be good value.

    They need to bring the cost down a bit though. £10 for the PPV would be fair, if you're getting a show from say midnight through till the finish, plus screenings of the fighters' key matches.

    I don't care if I have to pay £50 for Pac v Cotto; it simply has to be on.

    Top Rank's Twitter was saying that Sky TV would be showing yesterday I think.

    Is Primetime a channel you can order or is it just a PPV only service?

    No way will it be on Sky Box office just a week after Haye v Valuev.

    Can't really knock Top Rank's official twitter as a source, so hopefully it is confirmed as official pretty soon.
