    That is if Mitchell has been paid :-(

    I would not be shocked if Mitchell was part of the list because his opponent that night in Murray hasn't been paid!

    No wonder Mitchell was growing weed after all :lol:

    One of my favourite prospects and one to watch. He has had hand prblems in the past but they have been clear for the last year and it looked like he was good to go.

    No idea why despite the number of bills in Liverpool atm but Selkirk has not been given any dates its peculiar because he is fit and ready to go and one of the better prospects in Franks stable.

    I told family to get me a subscription to BoxNation as a filler Christmas present but I see this **** and all the horrific customer service they are providing and I really hope my family don't bother at this point because I don't trust these people to produce the goods and do anything other then rob me.

    If it lived up to its billing then it would be worth its money. At present viewers are locked into a 6 month contract with bills falling apart now and boxers not being paid. Not long before it folds. Save your money and treat yourself to a ticket or 2 to some shows.

    If it had lived up to its billing and the initial schedule on a consistent basis as they promised it would have been well worth it, it looked like it would be great viewing for Boxing fans. Well I hope the family haven't subscribed, but if they have there is no way out of the contract because of their horrible oppressive terms and conditions.

    BoxNation has shown that Frank is passed it as a promoter, he was once a terrific promoter but he seems so antiquated nowadays.

    There is some sort of court case going.. I think "allegedly" is suing ESB for the abusive posts written about him..

    I might be completely wrong though..

    Correct me if so.

    Thanks

    Well it's all about company names when it comes to paying out the readies. Be interesting to see if certain present day promotional entities end up following in the wholesome footsteps of Sports Network

    degale fight in jan 27 has been cancelled again. yet you can only find confirmation of this cancellation on the echo website, nothing mentioned at all on the fw site or bn...it's like it was never there to begin with. Perhaps certain people dont want to highlight yet another cancelled show...

    Hmmm i wonder why the show has been pulled :huh beats me!!

    :lol: It really is that dumb.


    All this has happened because of Gary Barlow, he is to blame for Frank's demise along with others according to LC.

    Is he also to blame for the aids epidemic in Africa along with the starvation?
    The war in Iraq and Afghanistan?
    The global credit crunch?
    Is he on peds?

    What a load of bollocks aye!

    Boxnation has a contract with Frank to air his shows. They paid him a few quid and he didn't pay his lads, he has now cut his own supply lines because no boxer with a a brain cell will fight without a guarantee of payment. Therefor no shows can be put together meaning Boxnation will not be getting many fights thus reducing potential membership signups and retention of existing customers.

    Suppose that's all Gary's fault too? the fact Degale and Gavin are getting paid ridiculous fight fee's in their contract is his fault too.
