    ITV need to clarify what is actually being shown live and what is being shown on delay.

    My worry is that very little of the tournaments are shown live on ITV4 bar Smith's fights.

    Usyk picked Huck who is a very tough fighter, but Usyk will beat Huck. Still, interesting fight.................

    Have just checked the ITV schedules again, all 1 - 4 of them, the Usyk fight is not mentioned on any of the 4. I don't want to miss this one, so will keep checking. A least with the original super-middle Andre Ward tournament, we got the lot for the one payment, with no fuss.

    Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware it wasn't being shown live either.

    I assume that means either needing a smart tv with an ITV app or else a computer to watch then.

    Yes, I've found it. It's the equivalent of BBC's i player, have never used it before. Expect Usyk fight will be on very late, as it is a recording.
    What a bizarre way to show an elite fight, if ITV are trying to promote interest in the tournament. I'm just glad it's on.

    Gutted ITV aren't showing this live. You would have thought they'd make an effort to show the very first fight of the tournament.
