Hearing Sky Sports are done with boxing.

This report claims they are not done with boxing but will be picking up events rather than having an exclusive deal with a promoter. Big fights are what's valuable to the broadcaster so makes sense. Sky Sports will NOT renew lucrative Boxxer deal when it expires this month - as the four-year exclusive deal between the broadcaster and promoter Ben Shalom comes to an end | Daily Mail Online​ Is gonna be PPV only, they’ll simply just purchase fights to stick behind a paywall. Boxing is no longer part of their regular subscription portfolio from what zi was told anyway.

Earn with Hearn and Matchroom on Sky Sports was peak boxing. Dazn isn't good. In fact, Nash Rules state that any fight fought only on Dazn is a no-contest. A fight has to be on a real channel, like Sky Sports and whatever the American equivalent is. Saudi Arabia fights are also NC, so Tyson Fury is unbeaten. Eddie Hearn needs to relaunch Sky/Matchroom 2.0 and launch it with a headline PPV of Hughie Fury vs Derek Chisora with Froch vs Groves vs Calzaghe (3 men enter 1 man wins) as co-main. This channel and night sells itself. Nash out - His Majesty

Its a disgrace

Sky normally covers Top Rank / ESPN fights, big or small. But I think they didn't cover last night's fight, Mason/Nakathila, if I'm not wrong.

It is understood that while Sky Sports are still in discussions with Boxxer, their future strategy will likely see them pick up individual rights for big fights from a range of promoters.

I am disgusted with sky sports

The whole distribution system needs to be blown up and started over. Watching fights on your phone isn't gonna work. Say what? I watch DAZN on my TV, phone and laptop depending on where I am. Do you not have a smart tv?

That means I'll no longer be able to see TR boxing on Sky. It also means I'll be missing the commentating of Poncher, who I prefer hearing than the Bradley group.

I have to admit that boxxer are shit compared to matchroom. They are barely doing one show a month

The whole distribution system needs to be blown up and started over. Watching fights on your phone isn't gonna work. Why do you need to watch them on your phone?

I am not an expert on the UK Market but it wouldn't surprise me. Boxers are highly overpaid and networks are not getting their money back

The whole distribution system needs to be blown up and started over. Watching fights on your phone isn't gonna work.

Lets face it Boxxer was a bit shit so its not all that shocking.

Sad news if its true. I may have to think about cancelling sky sports.

Can't stand Dazn. Was much better when Earn with Hearn and Matchroom were with Sky. Hearn went out blew about 1 billion on 1 foot in retirement Golovkin and Mikey Garcia, that worked out well! Earn with Hearn needs to return to Sky Sports, and leave that silly, unreliable App. Nash out - His Majesty DAZN pay MR 125m a year crazily. I doubt they’ve recouped much of that investment. Hearn must’ve sold them the dream big time. :lol1:

Can't say I'm suprised. They were due to do the same in 2012. Seemed AJ winning Gold made them change their mind. Have no reason to now. Warren launching Boxnation forced them back into the boxing market too. I think they expected to just be able to cherry pick Queensberry shows to stick behind a pay wall. Obviously worked out well for them as Sky along with Matchroom essentially stole that entire Queensberry roster.

Who told you this? It’s from a good source. He’s worked for BSkyB for a long time.

Hopefully they both join DAZN. All the boxing in one place !!! TR yes. Boxxer may as well just shut up shop. :lol1:

I wouldn't be surprised, they can't be happy with shalom and boxer

Who told you this? Whenever anyone here writes "hearing rumours" it usually means random Twitter accounts or their favourite YouTube clout chaser.
