    :twisted: Why not? What can that cost to do? Seriously- that's wank!!!

    EDIT: What exactly are you quoting/ referring to here? Just looked myself and there is no mention of FNF but, equally, there is no message saying it won't be shown in the future as well.

    iom qouting the sachedule ,people were spouting this and that about it but its obv just more rumour mongering ...as for why they dont have a message up saying they wont be showing it ,that is just stupid .

    if that wewre the case they would put notices up for every sport/sporting programme saying they wouldent/have no iontention of showing that either

    Yes, I have calmed and edited my original rage^^^. I don't know where he's getting this:

    http://www.espn.co.uk/sports-on-espn/

    There is no mention it will be on but, equally, there is no message saying it won't be either.

    Sky tried to flog me this channel this morning, I was having none of it, I knew more about what the channel was showing than he did, when I mentioned Boxing he went 'UFC?' I said 'no boxing' clueless ****

    Am gonna wait to see what their dedication to boxing is before I subscribe, although there's a rumour in Boxing News that they are in discussions with Hayemaker

    The second he said 'UFC' I would've hung up.

    I was thinking of signing up for the SPL/Bundesliga coverage but am waiting for any sign of them snapping up boxing too before doing so.

    :lol:

    exactly what happened to me, I told him the only thing i'd be interested in and signing up for is boxing and he said "he have ufc" I asked him whats that? the sadomaschistic gay porn looking thing where two men are rolling around in a cage? he says errr...i don't know sir...before he could finish i told him to call me when they have some substancial live boxing scheduled with a long term commitment and not the odd replay of a mediocre card here and there.

    I dont think the Hayemaker discussions are going anywhere.
    ESPN UK have no intentions of getting into boxing.
    Just a vehicle to get into football premier league.
