    Most of the decent international cards would be picked up by another channel

    And that sky sports subscription also gives you PL/CL football! formula one, nfl, darts! la liga, in terms of overall value it's far better than a channel who's best content is on in the early hours of the morning

    "Peter" isn't there I don't think.

    As for Boxnation, you only have to look at the domestic attendances to see that the channel isn't doing that well.

    If Boxnation folded the majority of the international cards would likely be split between BT/Sky/Eurosport. The niche (mainly German cards) wouldn't be shown unless there was a fighter of British interest on the bill.

    Jim Rosenthal tonight said that "that is the last you'll hear about Tyson Fury tonight". Hardly a gesture that will go down too well with the Fury camp.

    Sky are not interested in international boxing which is why BN exists
    ITV?- clutching at straws there arent you mate - what are they going to do cancell or move primetime shows like xfactor and BGT for boxing :patsch
    BT - why are they not easily bidding BN now which they could do with ease if they wanted boxing?
    Eurosport - yeah they could get the odd german card but after all these years they've been on again your clutching at straws to suggest they're dude not young to become some sort of big boxing channel

    BN exist because of the deal sky offered the domestic promoters, not because of international boxing. At the right price sky would snap up more but BN will obviously be bidding more so sky won't, BT already have a relationship with BN which they won't want to upset by outbidding them, itv have space in their budget with no fa cup or CL so wouldn't be a shock if they came back in like they did around 10 years ago

    Nobody's saying that these combined would have more content than BN, just that the stuff worth watching would mostly get bought up

    Haha just pointing out the ridiculous logic of comparing a £12 a month boxing only channel to a £20 a month sports channel (which has high level sport on it, not like primetime which only has NHL I think and minor stuff)

    What is that relationship? Never heard anything of the sort or seen any boxing on BT.
