Just looking on sky the live fights lists does not look very good at the moment. In fact looks very poor why is there no fight on January 15th?

There are never that many cards in January due to it being straight after Christmas. A promoter would find it very hard to fill a venue.

looking on the boxrec shedule theres plenty of small hall shows on , maybe sky should give the slots that the big guys dont want to the smaller promotors , be a good way tp give other boxers some exposure , id watch it , might get the chance to fighters ive not seen before

I was looking at the York Hall schedule out of curiosity and noticed that the Webb card & Daws card are on the same night - They're both decent main events, which genius booked the same date? I'd imagine only one will be shown on TV.

You would watch it, I would watch it and a handful of hardcore boxing fans would watch it but the casual fan wouldn't watch it so it wouldn't be worth Sky's time and money to broadcast a card where 'prospects' outpoint journeymen with records of 5-50.
