    £15 for ppv. £10pm Boxnation. £7.99 Premier. £20 Sky (if not more).

    Now to get all the boxing your talking at least £35 a month. The fact is if people dont buy ppv's and dont pay £10 a month extra on top of what they already pay, they'll have to put it out free to air or on a sky deal. Which is far cheaper for the fan.

    Primetime started it. Now Frank W is getting in on it.

    Lets Boycott it. And Primetime if they get pacman fight. Make a stand.

    If no one buys then an alternative will have to be made.

    Come on guys lets not get forced to pay extra. Lets just not pay. And It'll be free soon enough.

    Im sure Take That will endorse this boycott.

    box nation looks like value for money. if the line up stays the same level i will continue to watch and pay for it once it gets incripted.

    Its ****in shocking how much people are getting mugged off by sky etc...£20 per month for skysports + £18 or whatever they were charging for specific PPV's depending on how/when you ordered them. Then Setanta then Premier Sports, then Primetime now Boxnation. At least Setanta showed plenty of other sports, this **** is getting beyond a joke. Are Boxnation trying to charge £10 monthly, then extra for PPVs?...if so that'll in all liklihood work out as more expensive than all the sky sports channels combined!!!!....**** off Fwank!

    If nobody subscribes/buys the PPVs, surely the late night American fights will go back to being free on sky?...isnt fish eyes the **** that started getting good american fights bundled to his crappy, underwhelming uk ppvs, like khan v prescott...without fish eyes, sky sports would be showing this as part of the sky sports subscriptions.

    So many greedy ****s around these days...thank **** for the internet!

    No one forces anyone to buy Primetime PPV's.

    Boxnation looks good, think it might push Premier away from the boxing :think

    Is Boxnation £10 a month, flat fee, (a bit like setanta used to be) or will all the good stuff be PPV on top of that? If its just £10 per month flat fee, it could be decentish value, especially if they get loads of good fights from round the world, but if theres PPVs on top of that, it'll be a disaster.

    If fish eyes could get MMA (UFC etc) rights as well, a lot of people would probably cancel their ESPN subscription and start one with Boxnation.

    I would rather boycott Sky Sports personally. I utterly refuse to have any of my money go into the pockets of any cricket pro or to some silly American game.

    Yeh totally agree

    Premier have picked some good fights up, Calderon vs Segura 2 and the up coming Marquez vs Nishioka. I hope BoxNation give the same coverage to the lower weight classes.

    People were pissed off when Setanta went then happy again at the thought of Prem sports being the new setanta.That hasnt worked out and now we have a dedicated boxing channel for £2.50 a week and people still complain for the simple reason FW is behind it.If the golden boy Eddie Hearn had done this I reckon most would be on his nuts and praising it.
    How many of the people complaining about BoxNation paid for Khan/McCloskey,Haye/Harrison,Khan/Judah,Haye/Ruiz I wonder?That right there is 6 months of BoxNation.
    I dont pay for Primetime nor Prem Sports but I will give this a chance and I think it will be a success.

    FW isnt stupid though.He knows he has to deliver the good fights and I think he will.
    Its £2.50 a week,I think a lot of people will go for it and if its good they will stick with it.
