I'm sure I have seen Judah Vs Spinks advertised on Sky, but it is not on the TV guide

(I checked last night :( ) unless it is on the Saturday fight night show which is repeated through Sunday

:(

Boxing News said last week that Vlad v Brewster is on Sky on sunday, can't see why we wouldn't get the undercard too (not that an undisputed world welterweight title fight should be chief support to a crappy heavyweight fight but there you go).

wouldnt panic too much yet guys its often added late to tthe schedule on the sky sports pages.
Many the time have I had a bout of tourettes syndrome only to be placated a few days before when the fight finally gets added to the tv sched!

You and me bothe mate.

I hope they do show the Spinks Vs Judah, It could be a good one. I'll be Cheering for Spinks anyway.

I'll also be cheering for Spinks, i dislike Judah but i would back him slightly in this fight. I think he could hurt Spinks, i know Mayorga didn't but i feel Judah could. Judah has been unfairly labelled a failure in some corners after his Tszyu loss, we know he can't hold a punch i mean Milett and Tsyzu proved that but he is a good all round fighter.

surely adam smith wouldnt say it WAS on if they hadnt agreed yet. King apparently always lowers his price later n the week. i can only hope this is the case. Surely if they are showing klit v brewst they'll show spinks judah??

Brian Magee v TBA

Magee is scheduled to face Jerry "The Austro-Nigerian Nightmare" Elliott, who most recently lost by 9th-round TKO to Evans Ashira in a fight for the WBA International Middleweight Title. As far as I can tell, this will be Elliott's first fight at 168.

Another toughie for Magee then, he really is following in Calzaghe's footsteps. I hope the Austro-Nigerian nightmare flattens him.
