    From November...have they had any good cards apart from Burns v Katsidis? IT 's been 3 weeks since and I can't remember a genuinely solid COMPETITIVE card...thats a worry. December only has December 3rd lined up...and bugger all else...I'd start to worry that we are only going to be getting 1 good show a month.

    and fills the rest of the time (from 6pm) showing repeates of lebedev toney or donaire narvaez :dead i thought it was ambitious that they could fill a 24 hour schedule, but why repeat the same old ****? cant they get rights to classic fights? there was talk of getting mma on as well, that would have been good, and another worry is that this gives fwank the ability to have groves vs tba, or gavin vs tba, who turn out to be no hopers as much as he wants, there's no quality control, and if i was a pessimist i'd guess that would be the case til subscriptions are due in abuot 6 months when we'll get amazing bills

    I'd love it if they filled the schedule with either live or tape delay of cards from Australia (Green v Wlodarcyzk anyone?) or Japan (The upcoming Kameda card? Uchiyama on new years eve) as they surely wouldn't cost much to pick up the rights for (no market for them) and it'd help them in the future to market opponents as credible with fans having the chance to see them on TV.

    It seems like a wasted opportunity

    i was hoping for more build up as well, why not do their own 24/7 type thing or face off or show weigh-ins etc, you could easily pad out the schedule a bit, and i hope they start showing gamboa on these shores

    30p a day? Oh you mean they are going to show fights (no the same replays) every day? If they were to show different fights (be they classic, foreign, obscure etc) then it'd be great but we are getting 2 cards most weekends (there was a weekend with only 1 card in Novemeber) with the Friday cards generally being garbage or "typical Frank crap"...so we are effectively getting 4 real cards for £10...I'd like to see WHAT we're getting before subscribing for 6 months. At the moment December looks like a complete nothing month other than December 3rd, if it's only 1 solid night per month it might as well be PPV.
