    They would look like a massive laughing stock if they didn't at least mention fights on boxnation (haye/mayweather). I think its a case of they have to rather than wanting to.

    That stopped very soon. Although I did, I think, notice him recently use the term again.

    It is kind of an accusation of extreme evil, if it were serious. (Which of course it probably isn't.)

    Box nation crashed on a big fight they had on not long ago. It was the night we tried to subscribe, they ended up showing the fight for free without subscription. I remember because I was trying to sign up for it at the time. They won't risk that happening again, it must have cost them a fortune.

    I think it was Chisora - Klitchko.

    The problem is that if Sky have problems with a PPV what chance do Boxnation have with their frankly odd payment system? I can see big problems on the night of the fight.

    Agree, maybe they should use The Sun to really make this clear, maybe people can some how book through the newspaper?

    @bigdaddybunce. Can it really be true that Ricky Hatton has No Sky dates after Quigg and Munroe. That is a disgrace.

    only 3 weeks ago he called it the darkside when lillis went on ringside,

    he also makes digs at eddie hearn at every opportunity.

    :DQuick reply!

    I appreciate you taking the time to do the research mate:good

    Ok I accept he has still been saying the odd thing, but I still think he is saying it less than he did; at least he acknowledges verbally that another UK channel exists though:lol:

    I do happen to agree with him about the Ricky Hatton thing though......

    If you watched Boxnation the week before May-Cotto they were ramming home the point that subscription needs to be put in early. Same too for Chisora. - Haye I would imagine. Any boxing fan worth his salt will subscribe as soon as possible, it's only £20 for two months, you subscribe now you're on boards, a month later they take the sub for July (Hay fight month), and as soon as Haye fight is done you can unsubscribe. Alternatively, subscribe on June 16th and your month will end on July 15th...you get onboard and you don't miss the fight.

    Leaving it late is stupid. For ****'s sake ESB collapses on a big fight night, so imagine a website like Boxnations? It's likely to go down if there's a ****load of people wanting the same thing.

    Well said mate, just wait and see how many people complain because they can't get subscribed on the night of the fight!:patsch
