PLEEEEAAASSSEEEE say SKY will show the Cotto v Margarito fight (fingers cross Cotto takes care of Urkal first) in June.
That's the sort of fight that makes you want to catch a flight and go to Madison Square Garden. 8)

Don't know that the first fight is worth getting excited about, it will probably be a turgid affair, but the Barrera Marquez clash is a cracker. Might not be the most exciting fight, but technically brilliant.
I'm plumping for Marquez, I think he has less miles on the clock as he hasn't gotten involved in as many wars, and I think Barrera may have to come looking for him to succeed, I don't know that Barrera will be able to box Marquez and win. Intriguing fight, glad to see Marquez finally getting his shot at the big time, after the disasterous decisions of his manager in refusing the Pacquaio rematch.

Can't at the moment, because my phone line isn't activated yet. Have to wait until they do the installation. I'm getting sky broadband as well, just need to get my shit sorted with stupid BT.

If you want world championship boxing, SecondsOut is where it is at!
Streaming fights - the quality is so much poorer than TV though.........

Why is that? Will you show all the good British fights involving Witter, Woods, Hatton, Moore, Haye, Thaxton, Munyai, Asiku, Olusegun, Froch?
Will you show all the outstanding fights from Japan? There are some disgracefully overlooked fighters in Japan - will you guys be filling in that area?
Like bollocks you will.
Face it, loads of people hate watching fights on their fvcking PC.
