    He expected us to pay for Khan - Prescott, Cleverley - WBO No.11 etc

    He slags off Khan for moving to Primetime over the PPV dispute, moans at Haye that he only does it for the money.

    Yet he pulls this? He switches channels faster than a kiss-n-tell spreads her legs!!!

    I think he's gone this way: Sky-ITV-Setanta-Sky-Boxnation?

    He expects me to shell out to watch a dodgy show like that Cox fight?

    Sky will be fine with Matchroom and Hatton leading the way.

    Thing is if hes charging a tenner and your getting at least a couple of yank fights a month and at least 3/4 domestic or European card's i dont think that is too bad.considering rip off merchants like Slimetime .

    I used to pay £10 a month for Setanta just for the boxing. Included in that was UFC and Vaxuall Conference football (not watched) and a load of other **** that I didn't watch. So basically I paid £10 a month and from my memory - and please correct me if I am wrong - they only had one big fight a month? I cant remember if there was boxing every week.

    Anyway, I know 95% of people seem to be against this box nation thing - my question is - will I be getting more boxing? Am I in the same boat as I was with Setanta? Advise would be grateful (forget ****** has arranged it).

    I actually get recognised now and then from being on Sky with Prizefighter- could you imagine if it was on boxnation?

    To be honest, it'd not even a matter of value really because I actually probably would pay a tenner for a decent few fights......but I'm a major Boxing fan.

    The average person isn't going to care less about these guys fighting on Boxnation.
    They're just going to drift further and further out of relevance. I have to believe Big Frank has something up his sleeve here because he's a smart guy and this is an idiotic move to put it bluntly.

    Good shout, boxnation would be 3rd tier:
    1 - Terrestrial tv
    2 - Sky sports
    3 - boxing channel

    The only reason I 'might' get it is from a non-moral reason...I like watching boxing and that if I look back at my recent expenditure (I spent £110 going to the pub - welling utd - pub - bbq - back to a house party) then £120 for a years worth of boxing aint bad.

    Thats my non-moral view, if there was a nationwide strike on buying this then I wouldn't. I've always said ITV or BBC should put it back on )but then business is business unfortunately.)

    All those who think he is going to ITV - wouldnt that be in breach of the contract he has with sky that ends in July or is there a legal loophole that gets him out of that
