    Will be interesting to see how he plans to work it as no matter how high quality the fights are there wont be 10s and 10s of thousands paying money monthly for a boxing channel.

    Sky Sports aint much more and I get a lot more than just boxing.

    Yes but people are paying £15 for Khan/McCloksey/Haye/Harrison etc etc.If in the month there is a lot of boxing then a tenner is well worth it IMO

    It's not really up to me to comment on others businesses. All I will say is that I'm here to grow the sport not restrict access to it.

    Yes thats true but I'm not committing to paying £10 every month (prob a 12 month contract) just for boxing. I have no doubt Frank could get the content but then its just content for the sake of it.

    Again I subscribe to ESPN for less.

    Hopefully there will be a half decent fight by fight deal offered.

    Eddie summed up my thoughts on the matter pretty much.

    I'll buy it - if they provide value for money, decent relevant matches and international stars... if they don't, which they probably won't then i'll stick with Sky thanks. I'm not being funny anyone who can find it in their interest to charge a fight between two novice pro's does not have boxing interest at heart, nor are they interested in the long term benefits of the sport.

    Sounds like **** or bust to me.

    Bumped the company a few years back on JC, now has just shoved this up sky's arse..... we might be watching the end of FWP- their not exactly monopolising anymore are they?
