    Quick question guys. Im with virgin media and theyve just updated our tv package so weve got setanta 1 & 2 and some other football chanels (im in the uk). Is there boxing on these channels or do you still have to ppv? If so anyone got a boxing schedule link?

    Yes, there is boxing on Setanta Sports 1 & 2.

    Its worth checking out Achillesthegreat 'Boxing on TV' sticky thread at the top of this section for details of up and coming televised fights - many of the Setanta ones are listed there.

    Hope this is of some help.

    Don't think a big fight like Calzaghe v Kessler has been announced as PPV in the UK but it varies from fight to fight.

    The Hatton v Mayweather fight is on Sky Sports and i'll be cheering Hatton on like mad from the comfort of my living room whilst you are over in Oz!

    On Setanta Sports own site you could always search for Boxing: Live on Setanta for more info.
