Promoter Eddie Hearn announced on twitter yesterday said: "We are working on an exciting new initiative with @SkySportsBoxing to show the full card LIVE on March 30 from Liverpool"

The card headlined by Tony Bellew vs Isaac Chilemba also features the rematch between Derry Mathews and Anthony Crolla. Also scheduled to box on the show at the Echo Arena are Rocky Fielding, Jazza Dickens, Callum Smith, Scott Cardle, Tom Stalker and Anthony Jevons.

Sounds good.

First time it'd been done in HD. :deal

You don't know it's going to be, yet.

Sounds very good, would love this to be the case, some good prospects on the undercard so makes sense

:lol: Actually that's true. I'd imagine they may stick the early fights on the red button.

Although it says on the sky website that they're starting at 5 (am by the looks of it..) on Sky Sports 1. HD.

With there now being less boxing on Sky than before and only one promoter, it makes sense to make sure all of the show gets aired live and they've surely got enough channels for it to not be a problem.

Would be brilliant this the card is stacked.

The problem is the same as with BoxNation, where a lot of those fights will be dull mismatches that really don't need to be shown live. And people will just switch off, who needs to see a novice outpointing a 200-loss guy over 4 rounds?

They have some decent English and Area title fights coming up
