    So is there going to be a new BT Boxing team with new presenters and commentators etc? whats going to be broadcasting from the Boxnation channel, Bunce etc or the new BT set up? Nothing really clear about this at all...

    Also i signed up to BT Sport as recommended with Boxnation being free with BT Sport, only to find out that its not HD Boxnation that comes with BT Sport! what a joke, so now i'm still needing to subscribe to Boxnation as watching boxing in SD is rubbish. Moan over lol

    Im looking forward to the Smith v Williams fight. Hopefully its a good scrap.
    Not too fussed about watching Nicola Adams though as i have zero interest in womens boxing.

    I've just set up a recording on the BT 4KHD channel for the boxing, so if you have a 4K tv then it is UHD for the boxing. I am happy anyway:thumbsup::thumbsup:

    So what is the point of me keeping BoxNation? I assume international fights like Lomachenko vs Sosa?

    Use the app and chromecast. It's on 60 second delay i'd say but it's in better picture quality.

    Nice one. Didn't realise Boxnation was on the BT Sport app itself.

    On the opening bt/bn presser it was said that bn will be showing twice as many fights as bt only plus other content on bn only such as cassius and helder, buncey etc.

    Us bt sport customers have the box nation channel. I can watch anything on box nation and have been able to do that for weeks. Lower profile fights won't be simulcast on bt sport 1 but can still watch them on the box nation channel!

    On BoxNation's page it says I'll get Box Nation SD if I have the BT package, which I do. £12 just for HD is a bit steep.

    It's all rather confusing- I don't think it would hurt too much for Boxnation HD to be in the BT Sport HD pack across platforms.
