UK TV SUCKS!!

Post by Ruthless-RKO »

Nothing.. Literally are not getting anything anymore from the States..

Apart from the DAZN cards which are on SKY (mostly)..

At least TR should get with BT Sports, how Frank W is with ESPN+

allegedly is literally finished.. A year ago, it would have picked up Herring-Roach..

I believe BT showed Herring-Ito few months back..

We're not getting any decent US cards. Even the "decent" cards, would give us something to watch.

ITV aren't event showing PBC cards, so much for their deal. Only when it suits them..

US get a lot of UK cards.

ESPN+, although an app, get MTK cards.. Flippin MTK cards!!

ESPN+/ESPN will get FW's BT cards too.

DAZN will show anything Sky show in the UK, unless Showtime want to come in and bid more..

Stop your whinging, we’ve got a cracking fight in the UK lined up tonight, for only 20 quid you can watch 2 unbeaten fighters put their record on the line.

I watched a couple of episodes on your suggestion and it reminded me of an episode of 'Queer as Folk' I thought you all banned gay people up there when Jimmy Somerville took the train down to London. :lol:

Nah there's gays everywhere nowadays. It's probably easier to get your hoop tampered with than chasing flange :lol:

Sky tends to pick up the big international shows: Canelo/Kovalev, GGG/Dev, Spence/Porter and especially Inoue/Donaire were all good fights.

I'm much more concerned about the lack of domestic action recently, both Sky and BT are letting customers down on that front.

We get vast majority of the DAZN through Sky but it’s the Top Rank we seem to be missing out badly on - I expected FW to pick these up for BT Sport but it’s not happened.

BT don’t seem greatly fussed to buy or pick up anything else.
