Looks like the networks are turning their back on the Sport again. //www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/boxing/2461826/Froch-and-Co-set-for-KO.html
There would be if there was any possibility of such an entity making anything other than a huge loss.
You would of hope if Setanta were still about they would get the Hennesey deal. I think this will be the end of boxing on terrestrial TV, to be fair I am not that fussed. I have come to realise Setanta and Sky have the cash to make bigger fights and I will always have those channels anyway.
surely thats the way forward then high quality ppv streams for domestic and international cards if someone could set up a fight website and snap up any cards that arent going to be on tv if setanta and itv split the scenes that would be great
I think ITV do boxing well, I like there coverage and commentators etc. It would be the absolute pits if ITV4 do not renew their contract too. Feel bad for Froch, it was criminal that ITV didnt take on his last fight with Taylor. Someone needs to sort out the business model of PPV internet streaming at modest prices, there has to be an opportunity there, especially for small hall events.
