It definately was free for subscribers. It was only chargeable for those who haven’t got BN.

So BT using the Skysports model of exploiting the boxing fan.


W@rren with BT, Hearn with Sky I hope it doesn't go back to the days of them rarely matching their fighters against each other. Classic example was the light middleweight division in the late 90's. Packed with exciting talent and very few pairings thanks to them not willing to work with each other.

B0x nation brought a whole new optimism of paving the way for the fights being made that fans want to see. I'm concerned after all the good work of the last few years, the powers that be don't go back to those bad days.

What Time Will It Start?

Good question. The fighters are set to take their ring walks at around 03:30-04:00am on the 16th Sept or very, very early on Sunday morning for UK Audiences.

That depends of course of how long the fights on the undercard go on for and, in big fights like this, they tend to keep us waiting that little bit longer for the big show.

Expect it to be well after four before the first bell sounds.

Where Can I Watch It? How Much Will It Cost?

The bout will be available only by PPV for UK Viewers to watch or stream, on new channel BT Sport Box Office for the princely sum of £16.95.

The channel can be accessed via subscriptions with providers BT TV, Sky and Virgin.

Does anyone know if there will be a replay shown later on Sunday morning?

Haven’t been able to find any info on this and can’t handle 4am starts these days.

In the UK.. Hmm.. If it was regular BT Sport, a replay would have been shown Sunday.. Because it's BT PPV.. I doubt they will.. Maybe they'll show it a week later.. Kinda like HBO will show it on regular a week later.

The way Sky do it, they'll show replays to only those that bought it over a few days after the event.

Both men looked good at the weigh in, Golovkin didn't look like he had done the weight badly and as far as I can tell from check weigh ins and how he looks between contests he doesn't drop much weight anyway.
