Im kinda happy with the news, as I was on the brink of subscribing to Setanta anyway just in time for the scottish football season kicking off, which Setanta have exclusive rights to, along with some english premiership stuff. Then I hear they have just got the boxing too so Im getting even more for my tenner Thats on a purely selfish level though, but I am sad ITV have dropped boxing so quickly, & sad for the people who wont be able to get Setanta & will miss the big fights.
in a couple of years he'll sign with channel 5 so those of us who can't afford setanta will have to wait until then.
****. I hate watching boxing on Setanta and I am ****ing gutted that he has signed with them. Get rid of Steve Bunce, and sort the ****ing screen out and it will be tolerable for me.
They have like an inverted widescreen for some apparent reason. It was shown throughout the last Hatton fight. Got right on my tits.
do sky have anything now? i stopped my subscription to sky a while ago, i noticed that paul dempsey has jumped ship to present on setanta too, i weonder where barry will turn up now itv will likely give up its boxing coverage.
How about we start giving Setanta some praise? At least we seem to have a channel that has some serious intentions of showing boxing, they showed Judah vs Cotto they have Hatton, Fight Academy and now Sports Network. Add this to it's Scottish and English football coverage for next season and a tenner seems to be a bargain.
