where did you hear that skel?
My uncle Pete works for Sky as an outside broadcaster and usually works on all the big Sky Sports fights and i asked him a while back to ask them why they never shown the Floyd Judah fight with there main earner being Ricky Hatton, and i only seen him yesterday since i asked him and he asked one of the big cheesse at Sky Sports and thats what he said, he said you and 60,000 were wondering the same thing!!! Then they decided to do something about it bacause of the intrest.
