    If they don't magically air the Casamayor vs Marquez fight instead of the Guzman fight in light of recent events, I'm canceling my suscription.

    I ain't paying 10 quid a month to watch Diaz vs Katsdis and Marquez vs Casamayor on shitty JustinTV.

    A bit harsh on Setanta. Can't legislate for that twat Guzman pulling a stunt like he did.

    It will be quite funny to see how they try and fudge their way round this at 2.30 am though.

    setanta have been great for british boxing fans.

    i remember when sky only covered boxing, in the late 1990's.

    Tyson was the only foreign fighter that they covered. i remember them missing out on all sorts of greats fight

    That's why I'm hoping they give us the Marquez fight.

    I don't hold Setanta responsible for Guzman, but it's their responsibility to now give me a reason for staying with them. They call themselves the Home of Boxing...so I want to see some Boxing. If I weren't paying for it, I wouldn't mind.

    They have to get the (very expensive) rights surely?

    Anyway, Setanta is great. The only big fights Sky ever used to show were British boxers and the odd big abroad fight. Setanta has a good fight nearly every week! For only £10 a month too.
