Sinistin vs Arthur has been confirmed for July the 9th, same date as Witter and Froch.

Witter and Froch are on ITV, but what of allegedly controlled Arthur? Is there going to be a TV clash? Will the Arthur fight be on any TV.

Jamie Arthur (post surgery?) is also on the undercard for Arthur - Sinitsin, as is 'world' class Souleymane M'baye. Plus, Gary Young takes part in his first title fight - and I remember bigped posting that this one would be more competitive than the records suggest. Will be interesting to see the shape Gary will be in, especially if the fight goes into the last two rounds. The undercard is probably more exciting than the headliner, which I think Arthur will win handily.

MMMmmm M'baye appearing on a Sports Network show. very interesting. Do you think he is being lined up as a future Ricky Hatton opponent?

I think he could quite easily be hatton defence. He ranked 10 by the ibo.no 1 by wba 23 wbc not rated ibf so he on paper is a good fight lost on points to Harris.

Would itv show both arthur and witter fights same night cant see myself

Yea, definately. He'd be a good one too, in my opinion. The apparent lack of TV coverage brings some doubts, though.

The Scotsman said last week Arthur's fight would be on ITV, no if's or buts. Can't see aledgedly accepting Arthur's card being shown on ITV 2 or three whilst Hennessy's card gets primetime on the main channel. Still, IMO this is a good problem for boxing, in terms of spreading the word and exposure etc.

It is a good thing, unless there is a programme clash or if for some reason one of these fights doesn't get an TV (terrestial or non terrestial) exposure.
