Two cards per week was the sales pitch for this new boxing channel. I am happy with what has been delivered up until December, the Cotto-Margarito card was great and it compensated for the light December schedule. But, we are into January now, and it is threadbare. I know January is a slow month, but we are still paying our tenner a month for a boxing channel. January, February and March look very weak. Jan 13 Leon Williams v Shane McPhilben Jan 20 Derry Matthews v Emilano Marslli Feb 3 Ovil McKenzie v Tony Dodson Feb 10 Kevin Mitchell v TBA Feb 18 Vitali Klitschko v Dereck Chisora Feb 25 Cleverly v Karpency Mar 10 Ricky Burns v TBA http://www.boxnation.tv/boxing-matches/ One fight card per week and the Boxing Hour is not a boxing channel. I cant see BN picking up anymore subscribers with this output. Sorry for the negativity but I am a paying boxing fan and I want to see better than this. And I want to see two fight cards per week as sold to me.
ye but look at the quality - leon williams - shane mcphilben and mitchell - ormond are worth the 20 quid for the two months they are spread across alone! and its rumoured cleverly will be facing dangerous iron chinned banger tommy karpency, whos nearly rated at world level, should be a *******
did you know that dean powells mobile number is on the FW.tv website? strange. won't post it here, but if you could find it, why not ring him and ask him?
glad I didn't sign up now, The bigger fights on BN can be streamed for free on the internet anyway. **** YOU \/\/ARREN
They are failing to deliver on the promise already which is not a good sign after such a short period of time. I wouldnt hold your breath that the channel last's very long.
I personally don't think Boxnation will last to the end of 2012. Great idea in concept yet in practice seems to be falling majorly short.
I never really expected 2 cards a week this time of year but there should be no excuses by the end of January.
The fights are there so they have no excuses but if Buncey says that international fights are coming then great. The following would be nice :good Jan 14th Abraham/Stieglitz - Double header (Sauerland) Jan 20th Rigondeaux vs Ramos Jan 21st Chambers vs Liakhovich Jan 28th Brahmer/Chagaev/Boytsov - Triple header Feb 4th Chavez jr vs Rubio, Donaire vs Vasquez jr Feb 4th Hernandez vs Cunningham rematch (Sauerland) Feb 25th Maidana vs Alexander, Broner vs Perez Feb 25th Povetkin vs Huck (to be confirmed) Add this to the domestic fights that are already confirmed and Boxnation starts to look like a bargain again.
Accourding to my sauces, Berto-Ortiz, Alexander-Maidana and Williams-Ishida will be on boxnation as well as the Stieglitz-webber fight.
