    Quote taken from lillis on ***********. "Because of the controversy of the kessler fight, 3 american judges will score the fight which is likely to be on sky sports"

    What controversy lol... I was willing froch to get the k.o. No way was it controversial, he lost by a few rounds.

    Anyway, hope it is on sky, about time he got proper exposure.

    Brilliant. Hope its not too little to last for Froch's career, and the Super 6. Imagine if the whole of the Super 6 had been on Sky Sports, it would be massive by now.

    Don't believe it until I see it.

    Hennessy will find a way to strike a tape delay coverage (airing at 3am) deal with the Gay Dating Channel (only available to NTL customers living in the Shetland Islands on a Tuesday).

    Good news. I wonder if they pick up Ward vs Dirrell and Kessler vs Green the week before.

    Will this be the death of primetime. Hope it just frees up there budget for other us fights

    Really hope to see this on Sky...save me some money and it will get better exposure. Maybe a decent undercard too but I guess that is being a tad too hopeful.

    It will be great to get Froch, John Murray and Darren Barker back on a mainstream TV station...


    I cannot see why Sky (should they show more US fights) don't have a up and coming US Sports presenter and Wayne McCullough on the panel for smaller fights such as the Williams Cintron fight... Also did anyone notice John Rawling was commentating on the Hatton- Yuriy Nuzhnenko?
