    We do not get these? I am sure Sky, BT Sport's and Boxnation must stop them broadcasting here.
    You should drop them a line and tell em it's worth a watch. Of course Oscar and Haymon might be asking for a stiff amount?

    Nobody stops another channel from showing boxing, BT/ESPN is joined over here so they'll show them if they choose, just like the old ESPN channel showed the fights delayed. Channel 5 used to show them every week years ago. Sky/BoxNation have to buy international content it's not free.

    Golden Boy stream all their prospects shows for free.
