"Setanta Sports are delighted to announce that we have reached agreement with Sports Network to secure the rights for Michael Jennings's WBO world welterweight title bout with Miguel Cotto.

The biggest fight of the Chorley fighter's life at Madison Square Garden in New York against the Puerto Rican idol forms part of a massive double-header for boxing fans with Kelly Pavlik's contest with Marco Antonio Rubio also being screened on Setanta this weekend.

It had been reported in some areas of the media that Sports Network were unwilling to conclude negotiations but this was never the case, it has just taken some time to reach agreement over the rights to the fight.

We apologise for the confusion over the Jennings-Cotto bout but have tried to keep our viewers informed of the developments and are delighted that the matter has reached a positive conclusion at this late stage.

Due to the fact that Pavlik’s fight with Rubio will extend beyond 5am, when Freeview coverage finishes, we will be screening the big double-header on Setanta Sports 2. Our coverage of Michael Jennings’s bout with Miguel Cotto is scheduled to come on air at 2am. The fights will be available live on Setanta by Broadband and the first-air repeat on Setanta Sports 1 will take place on Sunday at 12pm."

I will take no pleasure in earning a great sum of money as Jennings gets battered.
