His greater experience and natural size could tell. Raging it's not on live though

I'm pissed about it as well. allegedly is excellent but why not show your own stuff live?

What is actually happening with this then? When are they showing it? It is still scheduled as live on my planner?

Instead of recording it and showing highlights later, why can't they show it live but no we have to watch Mathews v Flannigan or some such crud.

You're probably right. Can't think of any other reasonable explanation unless BNs jacket is on a shaky peg and they're trying to save dough?

I had a feeling it was not going live due to the serious expense of providing a live broadcast - miles cheaper to send a camera man to shoot what he can, edit it, and show it later. If this show is still going out live but NOT to BN subscribers that is a serious own goal by the channel. In fact I struggle to accept they'd be so daft. That would be an insult to their subscribers.

Google is your friend

I'm guessing this would simply be a stream from BN, so unlikely to be showing it either

I Thought Butler would have been more competitive than those scores suggest.

A lot. You have to pay live feed satellite fees.

You have to say that these days the odds are no better than 50/50 on any given domestic show actually happening. Arguably the only thing worse than the sanders/bursak fight falling through is it not falling through. Contender for most pointless 'world' title fight of the year.

Wasn't Liam Williams supposed to be headlining a show this weekend or did I imagine it?

Mansouri snapped his achilles, struggling to find a replacement opponent and after what happened to Blackwell at the weekend, they decided it was better to postpone the show.
Troyanovsky-Cuenca, Spence-Algieri and Wilder-Povetkin all announced tonight. Big announcement tomorrow of a huge fight taking place in May, which I suspect is Alvarez-Khan.

Good additions but sky are leading the way on domestic coverage by a country mile. BN needs to raise its game on domestic coverage. To run UK shows and not televise them is shocking, I hope it was a one off.

They've always done shows off TV and I'm sure they will do in the future. They shouldn't have announced it was on TV then pulled it, other than that I don't really see what all the fuss is about, same complaints come up in the first few months of every year that there aren't enough fights being shown then they announce some more fights and everyone's happy again. January, February and March are always fairly quiet worldwide and the same goes for August.

Seems to be one domestic show a month on average though ?

If everything had gone to plan there would have been 5/6 shows by the end of April, depending on whether the Corcoran-Butler show was live or not, which isn't bad for the first few months of the year, if that's followed up over the rest of the year then that's 15-20 live domestic shows. Shooting in Dublin cancelled one which was a freak occurrence, never happened before in the UK or Ireland and I doubt it ever will again. Then Williams-Mansouri went after Mansouri did his achilles and Blackwell being put into a coma after the fight last weekend so we've ended up with 3, which isn't enough but there's not a lot they could have done about the two shows they've lost.
Warren was on the Bunce hour earlier saying that he's expecting Flanagan to be back out early summer and hoping to announce it at some time in the next week or so, Liam Smith has been ordered to fight Austin Trout by the WBO, if Trout fights Charlo then Soro looks to be next in line, he's working on a fight for Liam Walsh that he's also hoping to announce in the next week, possibly Berchelt with the way he mentioned it as a good fight for Walsh a couple of minutes later. So it looks like they should pick up with the domestic shows over the next few months.
