Fight fans are in for a treat this weekend when boxing is back on terrestrial TV with Channel 5 showing the Hennessy Sports bill from Rotherham’s Magna Centre with joint headliner featuring Kid Galahad v Jason Booth plus Chris Eubank Jnr v Jason Ball.
Former IBF world title challenger Booth said “I’m really looking forward to making my Channel 5 debut; I wish it had come 5 years earlier.”
Ball said “The opportunity to fight on Channel 5 will allow my family and friends who are unable to make it on the night to watch the fight and it will also allow me to showcase my skills to a wider audience and build up a larger fan base.”
Daily Sport says – Going to be a great weekend ahead for fight fans with Dereck Chisora challenging Vitali Klitschko the same night in Munich.
