Comments Thread For: Team Khan on Sky Sports Split, Sky Says No To Bradley

[IronDanHamza]

what I'm asking is does England cable carry showtime and HBO ppvs ?

No, we don't.

We get coverage from HBO on Sky Sports for the big fights just without the ameican commentators.

So Amir Khan, Sky's Golden Boy who they have force fed us since he won the Olympic Silver Medal is moving to Primetime?

I find that hilarious. Both on Sky and Amir Khan's part.

Sky fund the **** out of Amir Khan and then 'aren't interested' in his biggest fight? Yeah, I bet they aren't....

And Amir Khan moves to Primetime, a horrific channel with no funding that no one knows about that doesn't even have HD? Surely this can't be permenant? Otherwise, what a tremendously poor business choice

Sounds like bull**** to me. Sky only televised the Bradley-Alexander fight to build up Khan vs. the winner.

Very amateur on behalf of Hatton/GBP/Khan promotions, to let the undercard fall apart and lose the PPV deal. Very sloppy. Fighters drop out all the time, the skill of the promoter is to have contingencies and still put together an attractive bill.

I think the comment about SKY not wanting Khan/Bradley is nothing to do with the actual fight - it's that they have no confidence in doing business with Khan's team and want no part of him whoever he fights.

I bet this all boils down to Khan's dubious team. They are ruining his reputation.

Exactly. Sky are entirely interested in a Bradley-Khan fight. The whole point of Bradley-Khan is that it can move Khan onto 147 and a potential Mayweather/Pac fight. This is sour g****s.

Ruining what reputation?

He's already known as greedy, arrogant and out of touch with reality in regards to his own career.

All this does in reinforce the fact.

I assume sky sports is basically what ESPN is down here.
