Setanta vs Sky For Hatton/Pacman

I think this will be on Sky PPV, its too big and too lucrative for everyone involved not to put this on PPV. It would easily do over a million buys in the UK. I dont think just because Top Rank have a deal with Setanta that it makes any diffence as it will be a co-promoted bout between Top Rank, Golden Boy and Hatton's own Promotional Company, Punch Promotions. Sky will bid an astronomical amount, as Steve Bunce conceded in relation to Hatton v Malignaggi.

 

Fwank is hating that he will not be promoting or any way involved if it does happen. Usual Politics!

Fwank needs to worry about his Boy Wonder Khan.

 

If Hatton doesn't own his own TV rights, how does he sell them fight by fight? You can't sell something you don't own.

Bet your life on this being PPV. Whether Arum pays Setanta "step aside money", gives them a few free fights instead or whatever. Theres no way the promotors are going to miss out 1,000,000 x £15.

 

Hatton has sold his own TV rights for as long as I can remember.

That is why there was plenty of friction between him and Warren towards the end of their days working together.

 

sky will win this war

the only reason setanta are even in the market in the first place is cause sky let them.

they sold setanta alot of there football and boxing rights

 

Deffo be on sky. And I want it to be. Not gonna settle for setatna sd service. I would rather pay 15 pounds pay per view for sky hd box office pay per view for this fight.

 

They didn't have any choice about the football rights...

 

yes quite right in fact the owners of setanta are just a sky franchise - sky were losing money on the prem plus so they did some magic & make a new channel called setanta where u get football golf & boxing & charge double the price as prem plus - how goods that - murdoch is a genius - so ye no doubt in my mind this will be on sky ppv ..

 

I dont see how it's double the price. Wasn't it about £6 per game on Prem Plus? Now there's about 6-8 prem games a month on Setanta.

 

55-00 per year if i remember right

 

I'm now paying £6.50 a month or £78 quid a year so not bad value with all of the boxing we see - plus Bunce's hour :good

 

how you do that - threaten to cancel??
