    Noticed in an interview Kalle Sauerland mentioned that a lot of hard work went into the show as they were not made welcome.

    Groves also kept mentioning good to be on sky etc and that it seems others are not as happy.

    Thinking eddie wasn't best pleased ??? Adam smith seems to like groves.

    F*ck Eddie and the stranglehold Matchroom have on Sky.

    Good on Groves and Sauerland breaking up the usual routine.

    The domestic dross on Boxnation reached a new low this weekend with Skeete and Buglioni.

    Hope this channel disappears soon

    Why?

    Without BoxNation, what other channel are we going to see dedicated to boxing?

    At least it does a job for us fans.

    I think it wont be last link up sky does with another promotional team. Look at how well Groves and Sauerland done with the show at the weekend it was a good package with co promotion by Matchroom. I think with Sky loosing the rights to the champions league and also loosing some rights to European Rugby to BT Sport there is more money in the kitty in the coming years for other sports more so boxing. So we could still have Hearn with the majority of the dates with say fights from George Groves and hopefully a deal with Amir Khan and Carl Frampton could also be made for there future fights. IF Khan fights Money next it makes sense for that to be on Sky Sports. Hopefully the boxing budget gets increased in the coming years and more boxing on Sky is the result.
