    Is there only ONE ESPN channel or is there multiple? I want to know because if I get freeview ESPN will my coverage cut off at a certain time, will I be missing UFC or boxing etc etc

    Help is much appreciated.

    It will have the same broadcasting hours (12pm-3am) For £9.99 a month. And will not include Espn America, just the main ESPN channel.

    There are no signs of any interest in boxing. However UFC has been signed up.

    Watch that vid for more details.

    If they've got UFC they'll have to broadcast after 3am for that.

    I dont know what to do. I like watching UFC aswell as boxing, but they offer little cars going round in circles and people hitting balls with sticks? I just want to see people punch each other. Is that too much to ask?

    yes they did. Not always but they did for UFC, and quite a few boxing matches. And I should know, having received five months free subscription after staying up to watch Jones-Trinidad and the signal timing out.

    So it's not NEVER. Is it????

    And there is no free month of ESPN on Sky, whether you subscribed to Setanta previously or not.
