I wonder if on reflection the UK boxing community will look back at Matchroom's time with Sky as the pinnacle of UK boxing popularity, a golden age? You need blockbuster fighters, an alchemy of talent & styles of course...it seems to have passed us now. Maybe wrong to link the good times (if you agree they existed) to Sky and Matchroom, but the time scale perhaps runs parallel.
Sky was the TV for the masses for the last 20 years, coinciding with great rivalries, generational fighters & barnstorming match ups.
Like or loathe them Sky bring a huge amount when it comes to promoting a fight
