Whenever a big fight is arranged I always wonder where the hell it is going to be shown, if its not shown by boxnation then it's the usual hunt for a stream which isn't always feasible.
Does anyone know where the JMM and Bradley fight will be shown? Are sky box office gettin in on the action or will it need to be a stream job?
When we start paying £50 for PPV fights we can moan. Through most of the year there's usually something good on either Boxnation or Sky, if not both, and even ESPN and Eurosport pick up some fights too.
Sky seem to have got back into boxing in a pretty big way since they got in bed with Matchroom.
I heard sky largely dropped boxing as it was not value for money for them, I.e. sky box office was charging people for fights and they were left feeling ripped off as the fights were often below par/ended too quickly etc. not sure how true this is. Plus I imagine sky would need to pay top dollar for many such fights and may not have got the returns on box office. If they were showing many for free then it may have made even less for them. Not sure how true this all is, just rumours I heard.
Yeah but that was because Alexander-Purdy was on the card.
You're correct on Ward-Dawson I forgot about that one.
True plus Kel was supposed to be fighting initially so they had that date for a long time.
Looks like a decent line-up from Sky, hope they get their act together and show more international fights.
Why the **** couldn't they have bought the Mayweather/Canelo fight, I have to put up with Boxnations crappy standard definition
Only guessing but I think it will have something to do with the price they have to pay.
Sky used to show Mayweather's fights for years. For Free aswell.
The last one was Mosley and since then it was picked up by sh*tty channels until the Birth of Boxnation.
Boxnation needs to get HD sorted.
Eddie Hearn said that Sky will be buying more international fights.
Marquez-Bradley is one. Cloud-Stevenson is another. Think there's another two.
Yeah I think they're showing Alvarado vs Prov too.
Last one I remember was Matthysee vs Peterson, they also showed Ward vs Dawson a while back.

Ruslan-Alvardo and Cotto-Rodriguez I think.
Decent I reckon.
Sky Sports are showing it. Which I'm shocked by.
They're showing a few International fights.
When's the last time they did that when there was no UK fighter attached to it? I can't even remember.
Cintron-Williams?
