    fair doo's pal.....like somebody said in an earlier post overseas fights at a lesser price say £10 quid for overseas fights etc?? good move id say.:good

    id say as a fight spectacle the best fight of the year is froch vs ward.......probs be a **** fight but its a bigger event than floyd vs ortiz.....

    ortiz has no chance at all not even a punchers chance im backing floyd to win every round and get the wide UD.

    I agree Froch v Ward is probably a better fight, but the overall card on Star Power is the world card of boxing that will be available this year!

    That's bollocks. For Mayweather-Mosley they shown three 10 rounders before the main event.

    Except Setanta were showing us fights all the time and were subscription based, they didn't just opportunistically pick up the occasional fight and attempt to rip us boxing fans off.

    Nonsense.

    This is just wrong! They would start at half 2 and show all the fights you are showing. for free

    And, if this is the most PPV worth card of the year, do you admit we got a raw deal with Khan-Judah?

    Nope, A British fight in aunification fight is pretty much by default PPV worthy, I'm just saying the Star Power card is even better!!

    Crolla on for free, so we are paying for a card that doesnt involve him.

    This inheritely is the problem I think. Ricky burns was never on PPV. I think people like Amir needs to take his head out of his arse for the time being and build a fan base. He has 10 years left, he cant fight every one of his fights on a PPV.

    Dont get me wrong, i'm not slagging you or your company off. I'm just giving my two cents worth.

    Hey, what's life without opinions. I think there is a big difference between Ricky Burns recent fights and Khan fighting Judah in a unification fight though. Khan already has the sort of fan base Ricky can only dream of, mainly due to the Olympics. If he can get the PPV money he's not going to turn it down and he's made very very good money from his two fights with us.

    Of course your right. But was Amir's fight against McCloskey really THAT much better than Burn's fight against Martinez? Is Amir's next fight (likely to be against Peterson) going to be THAT much bigger than Burns - Katsidis? Say Amir has 5 fights every 2 years over a 10 year period, we will be charged 150 quid to watch him fight, usually with a poor undercard. He just doesnt seem to be giving much back

    I think we all expected Khan to do a better job with McCloskey...

    But Khan vs Mayweather if it comes off next year will be massive!

    Well Benny Ricardo has received some glowing reviews for his work with us, we have moved Duke across to the studio which I'm sure will please a few in here and Wayne McCullough will do a great job taking Duke's place on co-comms so I'm sure you'll be pleased
