Just noticed this on BT's planner, it's listed as episode 1, so I'm presuming it's the first broadcast of a new deal with ESPN?
News to me, anyone heard of such a deal?
It'll be nice if is a regular thing getting ESPN fights on a High Definition channel rather than BN's shoddy SD quality channel.
Note, re-posted in the correct forum

I never use the website, I noticed on my BT PVR's planner and set it to record - presume it's still listed, I'll double check when
I get home from work.

No idea, it's just disappeared from the guide and not a word from BT.

I could never even see it on the BT TV guide in the first place.

They’re both officially weighed in and fighting for the belt like, so it’s happening.
Been a proper fishy build-up to this, with the fluctuating odds and being off and on again.
I’ll be watching, got a feeling something odd will go down.

I've always noticed, it might just be me. But companies are always replying to tweets, or someone Eddie Hearn replied when fans ask him questions. But no one ever replies to me.

Bunch of pudenda, I'm sure they reply when people are blowing their trumpets

On a note, i've had a allegedly sub since the get go. Use to record Bunce's shows weekly, I can't watch enough boxing, However it's completely fallen apart. I don't remember in it's history having as many weeks pass by without fights being on when there are fights on and available that they just aren't picking up.

Just watched this. ESPN commentary extremely biased. Thought Ito did ok, seems like it was a dramatic card, some good KOs on it.
Gonna watch the Haney Card replays then tune into the free stream of the China card. Not the best weekend of fights ever.

Commentary was biased, but the scorecards were ok. Ito won no more than 4 rounds.

I posted that before the scores came out, I didn’t like the 118–110 one but the right man won.
Don’t want the rematch and it would be interesting to see Berchelt against Herring’s style. Couldn’t believe the height difference when the three were stood together.

I’m inclined to agree. The style and reach might make it interesting for 6 rounds.
Davis needs to fight someone, badly.
