    On their Freeview show I'm witnessing scrolling script across the bottom of the TV that says...

    ....February - George Groves World Title Defence.

    On their website under Top UK boxers it is the one and only...

    ...Vitali Klitchsko. In his company are Cedric Boswell and Antonio Margarito.

    I apologise for another Box Nation thread but it does make me chuckle.

    i was so optimistic about this channel, i actually believed something associated with fw would live up to its promises and run smoothly, i know he doesnt actually run the channel but anyone that thinks he doesnt have a big say are kidding themselves

    I refuse to believe that there aren't real boxing fans willing to get involved with this channel. No boxing fan on this website would make these amateur mistakes.

    I'd work for free in lieu of free tickets?

    I suppose 99% of the forum would too.

    Q: Is it available in HD?

    A: Unfortunately it is not currently available in HD, but we are filming all our programming in HD so we are intending to launch an HD service next year.

    At least this is a bit promising.

    x2, the mistakes are so amateurish they make bbc sport look like the go to site for boxing knowledge, and this is a boxing channel!

    They had the world amateur championships listed as "amature". - No, really, they did. :lol:

    Who's driving the boat? He's doing a bad job.

    They can't even keep their schedule up to date. It's embarassing.
