HUGE DOUBLE HEADER FROM TWO CONTINENTS ALSO FEATURES BRITAIN'S MARTIN MURRAY V SERGIO MARTINEZ. British boxing superstar Amir 'King' Khan's first fight in the UK in two years will be screened LIVE and exclusive on The Channel of Champions BoxNation!
Channel Five's declaration that it has 'no plans to show boxing at the moment' was damning news to cauliflower ears this week. Since July 2011, C5 had provided live coverage of shows promoted by hard grafting Londoner Mick Hennessy whose stable includes Tyson Fury, James DeGale and Chris Eubank Jnr. The ratings had been high, particularly for Fury who, at near prime time on a Saturday evening, attracted close to three million viewers for his thrilling victory over Dereck Chisora.

I saw a bit of the first fight and had Abraham winning quite comfortably. He did what he always does; uses his strength, stays composed and marches forward behind a defence that's extremely difficult to penetrate. Stieglitz basically lacked the talent and imagination to penetrate.

This promises to be the hardest fight of Matty's career but I seriously believe he's going to win. His preparation has been the best it's ever been. He's trained really hard and he's in great form in the gym. He's had plenty of good sparring with top southpaws like Ryan Aston and Craig Watson. He's ready to do 24 hard rounds, never mind 12.
