BoxNation subscriber numbers

Well i for one dont know how to stream. I do have a laptop as well as int access on my phone. I would class myself as computer illiterate.
Surfing the web is as far as i go. But at home in my home ent system i have sony 3d tv. Full cinema sound as well as triton ax pro 5.1 headsets. Sky hd. Xb1 console. No BnW tv.
Its just silly to say that anyone who doesnt know how to stream is likely to be watching tv on a black n white.

 

You must be on a fishing trip mate.

No haul yet

 

If it is inexpensive Sky would have kept the coverage?

I was told the Khan - Diaz fight for example cost as much as £300k. Whether that's in pounds or dollars I'm not sure but that's a huge amount for a single event on a subscription channel.

I would love for BN to continue, but the UK content needs major improvement. They are keeping the hardcore fans based on the international cards but they won't entice new viewers unless their UK based stuff picks up significantly.

Then again when they are paying Tyson over 7 figures to fight Chisora you have to question their business sense in any case.

 

Comparing football and boxing is like comparing oranges and apples. Reality is that football brings in subscribers, boxing doesn't (or certainly not to the extent that it has a major bearing on Sky's numbers). The difference in the impact of removing boxing from their sporting schedule compared with removing football is so vast it's not even worth discussing.

I can only assume you meant that £/$300k for Sky isn't much? The reason I say that is BN came to my former employers in order to discuss potentially raising funding in order to secure the money to get the Khan fight. Hell FW discussed securing the loan against paintings etc.

This was pre-Bill Ives I might add.

For me personally, the channel won't grow without improved UK content, but the costs involved are such that it's hard to see how they'd recoup their investment.

 

It is dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooomed

Doomed I say

 

It might be doomed but as long as it's available and the quality international cards are regular items on the programmers schedule they can have my monthly subscription in a heart beat.

 

Boxnation has a better stable of fighters than Sky, Look at the fighters who fight on Sky and Boxnation.

 

A stable full of horses sh it led by journeyman DullBoy Chisora

 

Terminator_X's alt login I take it?

He tried to argue anyone who appeared on BN was part of the BN stable.

Wonder if Mayweather got that memo.
