Some random questions

Yeah but unlike over here, it wouldn't be a PPV card. Those guys are easily good enough to headline a regular HBO card.

I'll be disappointed if we dont get Marquez Diaz.

 

I believe they go thru a 3rd party company thats involved with getting sports & boxing broadcasted globally..

 

This is the response i received from Main Event in regards to Fox Sports showing the smaller HBO & Showtime televised cards.

I've said it a million times on here, but Fox Sports coverage of boxing is atrocious. It was much better when they had competition with OptusVision. I wonder how many remember that events such as Tyson v Holyfield I were shown on delay for FREE on Fox Sports the evening of the event... Fights such as Holyfield v Mercer, Lewis v Mercer, Moorer v Schulz were all free on Fox Sports. If Mainevent were to flick Pavlik v Rubio etc due to UFC coverage, it'd be the perfect opportunity for Fox Sports to do the right thing by fight fans. I won't hold my breath.

 

Well i emailed FOX Sports tonight, so we shall see wat eventuates from it.
If nothing does i will be making a few phone calls come the 1st week of January.
In the email i just stated most of our feelings & expressed we would all love the smaller Showtime & HBO cards shown on FOX Sports to help increase Boxing interest as well as the amount of people ordering Main Event PPV's would surely rise as well.:deal

 

Well done mate. I'll do the same. I won't hold my breath, they'd rather show netball, but it can't hurt.

 

Good luck getting a response from the pricks, I'm still waiting for a reply to an email I sent to them last year.

I had dealings with a few of the channels and most are like that, the stand out exception in my experience at least has been Sky Channel.

With the others its like its a bother to them to have people interested or watching their product.

 

I have always found Mainevent PPV easy to get a response out of also.:deal

We shall see if Fox Sports even reply to my request.:think

 

I do the tv guide thread here and you'd think they wouldn't be adverse to a bit of extra publicity. Mat Brooks from Sky has been amazingly helpful and Main Event have helped a bit but I've never had a response from FoxSports or ESPN.

No skin of my nose, those that help me I return the favour. Until then, the half assed dvd swap club I've mentioned in the tv guide thread is beginning to get legs, if we cant see stuff here for free I'm more than willing to share it out.
