    :lol:I never always fully agreed with SN stuff, I just never went over the top hating and was called a cheerleader for It.

    Thanks jebus Calzaghe left so I don't have to watch him on Sky.

    What happened to the Setanta deal? That didn't even last a year!:twisted:

    I like my boxing on Setanta dammit, I get that and ITV free and have to go to my dads for Sky.:twisted:

    Why the hell did he go back to sky? He did alot of poor matchups In the past, but he was doing better on Setanta recently, he now goes nuts and puts Khan on box office. Thats bad even for him.

    What an absolute disgrace, Warren has some balls putting Khan on ppv.
    I hope the numbers for this are terrible which i suspect they will be.

    So what will be happening to the Rendall Munroe Eropean title bill which I think is the night before? This card would have been on Sky but I doubt Warren will want it on Sky and I doubt Sky will want to put on a free night of fighting with a very similar card to the ppv the next day.

    Warren and the people at Sky must be on crack.
    Who ever the **** was stupid enough to say "That Amir kid has a bit of a following, we could put him on box office" needs to be shot with ****.
    Nice one Frank and nice one Sky, PPV is killing boxing. When will these greedy fools learn.

    Add me to the 'Ive been a defender (read refused to join in the rabid frothing at the mouth criticism) of Khan but this is just taking the ****' list.

    This is hilarious. I certainly won't be buying it. A PPV with no world title fights is bad enough but none of these guys has ever been a world champion.

    I'd bought every Sky boxing PPV for about 7 years and by the time Hatton has finished his snoozefest with Malignaggi it will be three in a row that I have missed. Sky really need to re-examine what they consider to be PPV-worthy.
