    Coming from the man who is slagging off ITV for doing CEJ as a PPV? FW is a joke......and a desperate one at that.

    If I cancel my boxnation subscription and take out a BT one, I wont miss any fights will I? For the extra £8 a month I might aswell make the switch.

    if you got that from the IFL interview i got a bit confused tbh. i think Warren got mixed up and thought Kugan was asking if he'd made Kell an offer in regard to Liam Smith fight

    From what i make out Box nation the channel just becomes another channel in the bt package aswell as fights being on bt sport one. So there really is no reason to just have a box nation sub as for around the same price you can get bt sport and box nation. It's slightly confusing but thats what i can make out

    The international content will solely be on Boxnation. It's confusing and not much more detail has been stated after the initial announcement.

    I don't think it's that confusing. If you have box nation you will see every boxing show. If you have BT sport package you will also see every boxing show as box nation is included in package. Neither subscription misses any boxing shows as any boxing shown on BT sport will also be on box nation at the same time. It's simple enough, subscribe to either and you see every boxing show.

    But if you subscribe to BT, you also get to see BT's other sports content so it's probably worth the extra few pounds to do so.

    Thats not was said on their anouncement.
    George specificaly said that you will get more boxing if ur a bn subscriber only.
    How i understand it is that bn will be delivering 20 domestic nights a year to bt sports plus some other content.
    Its not jyst a case of bt subscribers will now get bn for free, they will get about 50% or thereabouts of the boxing nights from bn but bn only subscribers will get the full bn package, which turned out to be 60 nights a yr. Thats what i remember george saying.
    But there again i remember fr4nk saying well get 2 british title fights a month at the launch of bn lol

    He said there would be more boxing because they'd be putting on more shows i think...

    Very muddled that a month or so on nobody is 100% sure whos getting what because of the wording of the press release.

    All FRanklyn warren needs to do to make this a huge success....is f the world titles....f the meaningless fighters who think they are bigger than they think and want to fight twice a year (ahem amir khan).........

    He needs to take it back to basics......and bring a whole new gen of young british fighters whoever they are.......by having them fight often every month.......lets see him take a Joyce or others and have them all build their career the first year fighting once a month.

    Look at connor benn he is doing it the old fashioned way and I genuinely have interest in seeing him
