The excellent 13th Feb FW Card is on a Saturday - Does this mean SBO?

    I am always suspicious over Saturday fight cards on Sky, as they clash with football first one of their high profile shows. The bill is excellent, and is better than most of the recent SBO offerings. The only thing missing is a world title fight.

    I hope it is simply a Saturday show on Skysports rather setting a new precedent for PPV for British title fights.

    Even sky wouldn't put this on PPV, unless Khan can squeeze in a routine title defence.

    Could be standard sky sports, the debut of the Olympians was a saturday this year, however that was only picked up by sky at the last minute with it being a saturday.

    If ITV were still in the game I'd suggest it could be there, but realistically it'll be on sky sports. As it won't be a typical FFN, presumably a separate deal will need to be done to show it.

    Maybe he is ****ing his hot wife/girlfriend. :tired

    i dont think this will be pay per view but Mitchells next fight vs katsidis will definately be £14.99.

    This'll be standard Sky Sports no doubt. I just Mitchell gets a credible opponent to keep up the momentum after the Prescott victory.
