I don't think that's ever been the case.For many years,the only place in the UK to see the "big" fights was Sky Sports.
Er, no... They've always showed Klit fights except for a short period when Setanta were around and they showed Klit fights.
Sky show all the major fights within reason including such PPV classics as Haye vs Valuev and Haye vs Harrion. They also show US fights which have a World or Euro significance.
