I will be suprised if SKY didnt not shown all of them, maybe not lacey mathc since calzaghe gone to itv.

Wright-Soliman will be ugly: I dont mind if Sky pass on that one.
Mayweather will win easy but its always nice to see his work,
the rest I am really looking forward to and expect to see live or on a next-day delay.

Skysports have always been pretty good at showing Klitscho fights sine the Lewis fight.
I can see they have a beneficial angle showing both the Mayweather/Lacy fights - (Re: Hatton/Calzaghe).
I'm not sure about the other two though.

Why would they benefit showing Lacy? Calzaghe fights on ITV now!

I would say Klitschko-Rahman is a dead cert, Klitschko is the Heavyweight boss and lots of casual viewers know about Rahman after his exploits with Lennox Lewis.

True... Scratch that Lacy fight.

Vitali/Rahman is currently the biggest heavyweight fight out there, for the most legitimate 'world title' in the division, so if Sky don't show that one we may as well forget all about the heavyweights.

Lacy vs Calzaghe is not going to happen, so I cannot see why Sky won't show it.

I think SKY might pick up on Lacy a bit and rub salt into the Calzaghe wound, they showed Lacy-Reid, ok maybe because of Robin Reid but i still think they could do worse than show us Lacy-Pemberton.

Really looking forward to this one - Rahman vs Barrett kind of spoiled it (because apparently Hasim looked poor) but only two heavyweights I currently give the remotest of chances vs Klitchsko and thats Rahman and Toney.

Jim Brady in Boxing News is suggesting Toney is good enough to beat Vitali and i think he has a point, i am looking forward to Vitali V Rahman but i just have a feeling it is going to be short and ugly with Rahman getting laid out. If he turns up and fights like he did against Barrett he is in for a shock when he starts tasting Klitschko's shots.

Toney would dismantle Klitschko in my opinion. Klitschko is too limited and upright to find a way through Toney's slick defence with any kind of power shots, and will crumble under the constant body shots Toney will get in. The only way for Klitschko to beat Toney is to stand back and jab him to hell over 12.

Good answer dude! To an entirely different question but still a good answer to whatever it is you were answering.

I've heard allegedly wants to secure the rights to Lacy/Pemberton and show it on the Nelson/Cantatore show but having said that I wouldn't be suprised if SKY bought it just to annoy Warren.
