    They have 30k subscibers. You would have to imagine all the big fights get viewed by at least 90% of the subscriber base.

    They must have more than 30k subscribers. If they do only have 30k subscribers then within another 6 months boxnation will be no longer. I won't subscribe to boxnation because their coverage is shocking and I already spend loads on sky, broadband, telephone and mobile phone without having another tv channel subscription.

    I for one am really chuffed with these viewing figures.

    I have no real loyalty to any particular channel (although I will defend Boxnation against detractors!), I just love the sport of boxing and think high viewing figures can only be a good thing.

    I was and will continue to be disappointed with the decrease in overall boxing coverage on Sky, but I have to admit that the quality of the shows is very impressive and the presentation also looks fantastic.

    Hopefully these great figures will encourage Sky to have more shows.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, Saturday night televison audiences are there for the taking, there is very little in the time slot that the boxing usually covers (the mainevent that is) to compete with.

    Once the crappy talentless shows and Downton is out of the way what is there!


    Keep up the good work SKY, we just want more!!!!

    If they were doing really well they'd tell us wouldn't they. So I can only take from that they aren't doing as well as they hoped. However they are still picking up cards so they can't be on life support.

    It's all guess work, wait until they produce their financial reports and then we should have a better idea of where they're at. This Jonesy guy just talks **** out his arse.

    In a recent interview with Tris Dixon, Frank let slip that they had around 200,000 subs.

    Well chuffed for Froch, getting those figures and putting in that performance, he's been doing British Boxing proud with that run of fights so it's great to see him get the recognition in front of good numbers.

    Match of the Day I would assume to be the big threat.
