Thread: Warren signs deal with Setanta for Calzaghe/Kessler fight

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/6280484.stm

The article is about Calzaghe/Kessler being signed, but if you scroll down towards the end of the article, Frank confirms he has a deal with Setanta. So much for being committed to terrestrial TV.

found a better article...

fuck, i see this as a bad blow for british boxing as the average boxing fan wont pay to see this fight, also it wont get the publicity it would have with it being on itv with it being played in almost every pub in the uk.

All is not lost...Khan will still be fighting on ITV1 for the next 12 months

I'm not too worried about this considering I'll be going to the fight in Cardiff whatever it takes. But another interesting addition was the confirmation tonight that Enzo Maccarinelli will be on the same card, and I'm hoping for some sort of unification fight there.

Cunningham is the most likely I guess, and I'd enjoy that, or maybe against O'neil Bell if an unification can't be signed.

Behave Rhun

you think old FW is putting TWO 50/50 fights on the same bill?....slim just left town

He's been getting better has Frank...but the move to Setanta may prompt him to wind his neck in again...

I have heard Setanta Sports will now be included on the Virgin media Package
