    Do BoxNation really show more rights than Setanta did? I don't think so

    2008 was Setanta's best year for boxing, where they had close to 30 shows.

    In comparison, BN had 62 shows in 2012.

    For purely boxing, of course Boxnation is better.

    For the whole package, I preferred Setanta

    Setanta showed

    Haye v Enzo (did they have the Mormeck fight?)
    Calzaghe v Kessler/Hopkins/Jones?
    Pacquaio v Marquez 2/David Diaz
    Cotto v Margarito/Jennings/
    Rees v Kotelnik
    Margarito v Mosley
    Hopkins v Pavlik
    Pavlik v Lockett
    Klitschko v Thompson
    Vitali v Sam Peter/Gomez/Arreola?
    Dawson v Tarver/Johnson

    Think I remember those fights being on there, they had a few more too I'm sure of it.

    Plus the Bunce Hour was a million times better then as they got fighters from other TV channels to appear on the show.

    i felt like I watched Setanta Boxing allot more than BoxNation Boxing, thats why I said it. Certainly Setanta shows more domestic stuff.

    Setanta had a lot of boxing from around the world, plus Haye's/Calzaghe's fights.

    Sky had Hatton/Khan, most of the domestic stuff.

    When you factor in that Setanta was a sports package as well with Premier League football and England away internationals and a sports news channel (okay it was shite and not as good as SSN) it proved to be better value than any other sports channel/package by a country ****ing mile.

    Well most people are interested in objective truth, not how you "felt"...
