Any idea what TV channel (if any) this will be shown on in the UK?

Anyone?

I think its on ESPN mate - not sure if BT Sport have it

From the lack of replies, seems nobody cares lol

I definitely care, I'm actually quite excited by this matchup.

I'm hoping that Pulev can really put it up to Wladimir

Yeah it's a fight that interests me aswell. I think Wlad will win but Pulev should make some of the rounds interesting.

Heard a suggestion it might be shown on Freeview channel Quest. Quest have recently started showing Speedway and are showing Newcastle and West Ham playing in the Schalke tournament over the next week.

Last I heard UK Conquest were considering putting a bid in.

If successful they will show it after reruns of their military based quiz show Skirmish.

No.1 heavyweight vs No.2 heavyweight and no one even knows what UK channel it will be on, and with less than 6 weeks to go lol..... Just goes to show the state of the heavyweight scene ATM...
I wonder if it was like this when Ali faced Foreman???

Excellent point.

I'm guessing it wasn't. Am I right? Is there a prize?

They should have it on Eurosport again.

Anyone seen Pulev's twitter? He makes Tyson Fury seem tame with some of the stuff he comes out with.

At least he's a genuine world level heavyweight who backs up what he says, unlike Fury.

hopefully it will be on euro sport with that bird they had on presenting the last Wlad fight
I forget her name but she was a right sexy sort - I remember Fury and Steve Collins looking at her like they wanted to drill the fcuk out of her and I cant blame them!

What does he say?

Pretty sure it's a fake account. I highly doubt the real Pulev would post videos of Charlie Zelenoff. The account below seems more likely to be his in my view:

An example of something posted by that account is "I will destroy McCall on 5 April in dedication to faggot black american heavyweight @BronzeBomber"

I've seen documentaries on Pulev and these types of comments don't fit with his personality, not to mention I don't think he speaks English and there isn't one post in Bulgarian or German.

I got in touch with Quest who confirmed the following:

"we regret that there are no plans to obtain the rights to Wladimir Klitschko's next bout at this time."

Looks like it's not on Quest then. B0xnati0n have the Frampton fight that night and I can't see SKY shelling out for the rights. Either Eurosport or BT / ESPN look like the only other realistic options.

Yeah, that does make more sense. The fake one has more followers though, which is a bit worrying. None of them are verified though.

I hope Eurosport show it. I guess we'll know which channel (if any) nearer the time.
