    I don't think they publicly declared an interest in any sport they have purchased rights to. Also they have signed up Paul Dempsey which points towards some boxing coverage.

    The ramifications of BT Sport NOT going into domestic boxing will be huge. Thats why he is so influential. His decision whether to show UK Boxing, just international or none at all will decide the rise and fall of several promotional companies.

    If BT go with domestic boxing they could sign up Frank W or the Hattons. They could do a deal with Goldenboy & Sauerland which will include a certain number of UK shows. But if BT say no to domestic boxing it leave all of the above in a situation where they cannot produce domestic boxing on a regular basis. If BT chose to invest in International boxing it will almost certainly be the end of BoxNation.

    Is Simon Green one the board of BoxNation? I've a feeling BT Sport will get involved.
