Weird - as they list Gavin fight, then over to USA for Rios/Chaves.......but no mention anywhere of the 2 world title fights on same bill....including King Kov
Now I hope they are showing the whole bill, and they haven't just paid for the one fight ..anyone know

I believe allegedly buy the international TV feed from the show promoter, not the TV channel, so buying the rights to the Vegas show would not automatically give them the rights to the AC show.

I don't think the Kovalev fight is available on any UK station. Shame as his last one wasn't either if I remember right?

They mentioned the fight on Bunces Boxing Hour... Not sure if this means they're gonna show it though!

Bunce reckons carapello looks like cleverly.
Cleverly will be well chuffed

He's got the wrong Welshman, he actually looks more like Gavin Rees
Yeah his last fight wasn't shown in UK either, shame that one of the significant fights BN doesn't pick up, isn't picked up by those useless bums over at Sky TV either

Doesn't necessarily mean he can't punch. In recent memory one example was Carlos Baldomir who could wack a bit at welterweight but had a poor KO ratio.

I had an e-mail from them earlier today promoting tonight's fights, alas there was no mention of Kovalev.

alright alright I'm just trying to talk it up ok ? :) And try telling that bloke in the video he can't punch. Plus there's those rumours that the King Kov's chin aint 100 %...

True but I think that was more of perfectly landed shot than anything. He didnt knock out Allan Green and that guy is chinny as hell and fighters with power tend to stop.
