    It must be so easy for Boxnation to get a deal with Haymon/PBC/Showtime. Simply, ' your enemy's enemy is your friend '. They hate Hearn/Dazn. Sky is no longer a player in non Dazn international fights. Boxnation/PBC, a cut price marriage made in heaven !

    Pleasantly surprised by this. I thought the days of Box Nation showing big fights were over.

    This is great news. I know his style is marmite but I love Porter. It might look untidy but it’s an art being able to work on the inside like that.

    Yes a deal with Boxnation and PBC would make sense. Combined with their Top Rank output agreement this would go a long way to ensuring that most shows from the states would be broadcast between them and sky with the DAZN cards. Will wait and see what happens though.

    I think Amanda Serrano is on the international feed so hopefully we get her fight picked up too.

    Of course link ups with US promoters is good for Boxnation but the main issue with that market is the time of the fights. They should have done a deal for major fights in Europe with likes of Sauerlands and should 100% got the WBSS. They should also have good UK bills on.

    yeah, they should be able to get all HBO & Showtime/pbc fights as well as the espn/top rank ones which they already have an exclusive deal, maybe now that they are cut off from warren and bt they can focus on the international cards.

    Great, unexpected news. Like Mark Twain, Box Nation's death was exaggerated!
