I'll try to keep this updated as best I can each week. Feel free to add anything you spot coming up on TV that I've missed. Some of the above shows, such as KOTV, get repeated at various times of the week. I'm only posting the first time the show is televised.

Some very good matches there to look forward to! The two cruiser semi's will be very interesting. I. Getting a semi just thinking of them

[Cholo_cws]

Many thanks.

Yeah looking forward to both myself. Petty both aren't being shown to a wider audience on ITV4. Could be worse, could be PPV like the other 2 semi's

True mate. I'll pay for the Groves Eubank fight but I'm not paying to watch Smith v Braehmer!

Not problem. Plenty of "legal" boxing out there for folks who can't afford subscription TV. 6 live shows in an 8 week period is cracking.

Agreed unless ITV Box Office drop the price to something reasonable like £5.99 of both events for £15.

Thanks brother! I am waiting for my new TV box so will set a reminder!

Good thread, keep it updated as we go on

Will do my best. Tried to do this type of thread in the past but it slides down the forum pretty quickly and becomes difficult to find to find and maintain.

Is it possible for the thread to be pinned please? It's in danger of slipping off the first page

Thanks

Thought I'd chuck in The Square Ring. How do people feel about movies being included? Also noticed that SKY Sports have launched their own boxing channel on YouTube. At the weekend they broadcast 2 undercard fights live. Would people be interested in info on free YouTube streams or shall we keep this strictly to TV coverage? All feedback welcome
