    Sorry if I am late to the party but Boxing Social are showing York Hall cards on FITE TV now. I'm not touting for them, I've got a one month free trial (again) and just realised this was on on Friday, so watching it now. First fight is a HW one. I've not seen the results so can pretend it's live. Link is here [url]https://www.fite.tv/watch/boxing-social-fight-night-apr-28/2pcuy/[/url] you can sign up for a week for free, I've cancelled mine but can still use it til end of month.

    Boxing Social content has gone downhill since Rob left but hoping this card is ok.

    I ve signed a 1 year subscription to Fite TV+ and it was slightly better production friday night than their first boxing event, which was very amateurish. There have been way too many technical errors and problems with picture etc.

    There is room for improvement.

    It's come up in other threads, how many subscriptions do you take in order to watch boxing? Sounds like Sky, BT, DAZN, Fite, previously BoxNation too? More power to you.

    All those subs and how many genuinely good shows do you get a year from it? Boxing really is a mugs game

    I would like to support the tv stations / streaming services that want to show boxing.

    I´ve had a Sky subscription through satellite since 1996 and a BT Sport subscription since day 1. I still remember their first day when they presented their TV studio and I was blown away ! Also had a Setanta Sports subscription via satellite and I still miss their box coverage today.

    I have no financial problems and if there is a TV station or streaming service that shows boxing, I buy a subscription.

    That's pretty much me too. I appreciate not everyone can.

    As I said, more power to you. Boxing doesn't appreciate this kind of support.

    I would argue you're part of the problem though. Pay for **** and they will continue serving you ****, not only that they will see just how much worse shot they can sell you.

    he's really not. I have as many subscriptions. We can choose to pay for what we want. I spend about £100 a month watching boxing, it is not a large outgoing for me. How is that my problem? I'll buy an imperfect product if I want it. I buy Nike trainers for my daughter. I'm acutely aware they are part of massively immoral commercial system. She still wants Nike trainer.s. And I will buy them.

    I bet those Nike trainers are very comfy though. I love Nike trainers, pretty much all i buy because they are as comfortable as you get.
    I'd compare paying subs for boxing as a fan is more similar to paying extortionate energy prices than a pair of trainers.

    Not really. You don't have a choice with energy prices. Sadly.
