    For those that havent seen ringside the exact quote was:

    "Sky Sports has signed an exclusive deal with Golden Boy Promotions to broadcast big bills from across the atlantic"

    So Mayweather v Cotto and Berto v Ortiz probably included.

    Yeah but you tell me how they get 8 live shows in March? The shows just aren't there without getting something really obscure

    This may sound stupid but I've just signed up for Skysports, but are the fights listed on Skysports HD 1 also shown on the regular Skysports 1?

    Thats it for boxnation. Great for sky. Ortiz v Berto 2 I assume it means Floyd v Cotto will be on sky as well due Golden Boy's involvement.

    And people thought Sky were done with boxing.

    I dont think BN will be alive come the end of 2012

    fair play mate, you got closer than I thought you would. Didn't know about the Smith-Jones fight. Zab Judah-Vernon Paris is the only other fight I can see out there for March at the moment so that would be 5-7 shows over 5 weekends which is why they may end up making the effort to show Williams-Ishida

    There was no mention or hint of Mayweather on the piece so I'm not convinced they'll have it. Hopefully I'm wrong
