    There hasn't been much.

    I have a sneaky feeling they will be on Setanta. Remember not so long back Warren signed a huge deal with them and then reneged on it to go with Sky in order to keep Amir Khan....... they were going to sue him for BoC - this may be recompense of sorts for them.

    Also when Fwank was on BBH him and Steve kept exchanging funny looks as if to say 'should we be saying this'

    They won't be on ITV, I know that much!

    Buncie was dropping non too subtle hints about Setanta possibly having them when Warren was on his show a month or so back.

    we're only 3 and a half weeks away so i'd of thought we'd have an announcement in the next 10 days or so.

    Any news of the bbc or channel 4 or 5 going for it. I thought the bbc would be the first in for them. Fraudley might have put them off though :lol:

    Hopefully Setanta.

    They are streets ahead of Sky and ITV with their boxing coverage and long may it continue.

    I hope its on one somewhere that doesn't show boxing at the moment, like say the beeb. Rationale being, if it is say setanta then thats a big chunk of the boxing budget gone.
    The more channels showing boxing the better, obviously.
