Are they not going to be showing the big american fights this year? they only have the williams-gammer fight listed so far. I'll be pissed off if we don't get to see de la hoya-mayweather.

I am sure they will show all of haye's fights as well, I know sky used to show a fair number of the big fights in the 90's i didnt know they showed any top american fights anymore. The only way i get to watch most of the fights is going on to ******* sites. i was hopping that williams-gammer would be on ITV as i havent got sky sports. I think ITV should try and get a lot of the big american fight and put them on ITV4.

they don't seem to show much american boxing live. they showed the last pbf fight live, but others like last weeks Malignaggi fight and the last De Leon fight they show a week later.

it can't upset their scheduling to show boxing at 3am so it must be a money thing.

as for the big british fights, they'll be showing froch next month and haye in april

It will cost an arm and a leg to show big american fights live in the UK.

couldnt they just beam the US coverage straight to UK, that would make it a bit cheaper.

de la hoya-mayorga
hopkins-tarver
