    Box Nation certainly need to up there game in terms of picture quality expecially for there live events. The whole thing is a bit naff and amateur.

    I watched the intro to Chavez/Manfredo and was surprised by how professional it looked. Til I realised they were just using the Top Rank international feed.

    **** poor picture quality from box nation, already paying £65 a month to sky without any ppv fights not paying another £10. Couldn't they earn the money from advertising revenue?

    £10 is worth it just for the 3rd of december, cotto/margarito rios/murray povetkin/boswell helenius/chisora. That's a nice evening of boxing sorted. I just hope they get groves and degale fairly good opponents.

    I'd rather see 3 or 4 undercard fights with up and coming fighters than listen to McGuigan and Nelson go over the same points time after time.

    I don't care what anyone says if you don't know the channel you one of 3 things

    1) Either a Jade Goody stunt double
    2) Not a Boxing fan
    3) ****ing idiot

    The thing is the people who are gonna subscribe are the dedicated fans like us that already know about it, I suppose it's worth a try getting the odd casual fan on board but casuals are usually dipping into the pockets for fights like haye/klitschko hatton/mayweather, there not really bothered about staying awake to watch cotto/margarito. I get the feeling boxnation have done most of there homework and I'm guessing there hoping to right where setanta went wrong, the hd will come eventually, you can pick holes in the commentary for any of the sports channels, you can't make everyone happy of course, I can't stand jim watt but it is what it is, boxnation have done a good job so far to be fair.

    Most people watched Ali vs Frazier III in black and white. Audley vs Haye was available in 3D.
