Obviously they publicise them if theyre very impressive but theyre under no obligation. non ppv boxing figures are on BARB but not Box Office

Hardly ever, true. Only when they are incredibly impressive (Hatton v Mayweather supposedly just topped the million; Haye v Valuev supposedly around 800k).

The Mayweather one was confirmed to me by someone at Sky when I did a feature on Boxing and TV. But when they aren't independently audited like the BARB figures, it's impossible to be sure, isn't it?

Warren likes to give a very cynical appraisal of all fighters outside his encampment. He's an high order ......... promoter (of himself and the fighters he represents - until they leave him).

BSkyB is a FTSE 100 company. It really ought to release more details on what is a pretty important revenue stream for them. (I'm referring to Box office as a whole here).

Their last annual report did refer to Hatton-Mayweather, but as others have alluded to, thats because they were good .

Put it this way.....Ricky Whittle got more and only 1.4% of the audience voted for him.

Did Ola say she'd go topless if they won or some such, did I miss that week?
