Any idea lads who has picked this up? Strong feeling it might be ITV (terrestrial) but can see nothing online

Answer: ITV4 2am :TU:

There's been no word as yet, you'd expect it to be on ITV but I don't mind as long as someone picks it up! Would be a real shame for this one to be missed in the UK.

Hope it is ITV. Been great getting up on a sunday morning to top class boxing and this will be the best yet.

Definitely, it's nice to have the option of recording a card when you're not feeling up to an all-nighter mind :lol: I usually try to stay up regardless.

I don't really get the ITV/PBC deal, the Lara Castano, Cruz Rivera, and Davis Ruiz broadcasts weren't shown (unless I missed them on the planner), so is it just select fights?

I also looked for these fights on the ITV hub and couldn't see them - was hoping every PBC event would be shown.

Seems as though they are picking & choosing which fights to show, same with Porter v Ugas this weekend, doesn't seem to have been selected by ITV.

Typical ITV. No commitment, just interested in PPV. It's absolutely pointless having a contract and not showing the fights. Clearly it's on a fight by fight basis and they realise that it's not worth showing many fights cause the audience is so small. I hope Spence Garcia ends up on allegedly as some others have suggested.

See if ITV aren’t gonna bother picking up world title fights like Porter-Ugás even, then what’s the point. I’d rather they go back on Bnation.

Saw a pic of Garcia in training. He has put on some muscle mass. I'm getting more curious about this fight. Hopefully his transformation was done correctly for boxing and doesn't slow him down.

Yeah Mikey’s superior technique and newly added roid rage will make for an interesting fight indeed

Yeah - Floyd has DLH to thank for his global star attraction. That fight was a gamechanger - start of 24/7 etc.

I still think Tyson is the biggest name in boxing of all time. Floyd still needed a dance partner to achieve massive numbers.
