heard of a few different people that sky are extending there shows from 2 hours to 3. hope this is the case. i dont want to build peoples hopes up but like i say i have heard it of a few people, and tonight the show starts at 8 and ends at 11.

if this is the case from now on well done sky about time to :TU: ,

i think i speak for most people when i say as a boxing fan its nice to see as much as the shows as possible, not just the main event and 1 or two other fights.

Thats really good news if its true, we might actually get to see a full undercard fight! I wonder is the extra long show tonight to accomadate showing Khan-Salita or Mitchell-Prescott?

Is the extra hour because they are showing the highlights of the Khan bill from the weekend...?

I think Maloney likes to show his prospects live first, then the main event- a good way to do it, of course.
