    It not only survived 2012, but it looks likely to flourish in 2013.

    They have just got a new wealthy back. Shame they have not picked up Coldwell, VIP, Hard Knocks and Left jab

    Don't really agree with that.

    Only British fight that was big was Haye/Chisora and that sold itself, it was an absolute gift.

    I'd wager the majority of people subscribe for the international action they otherwise wouldn't get cos the domestic stuff is usually substandard.

    I'd agree with this, although I expected the opposite! hence I havent subscribed.

    No reason to say it will fold this year so long as their major backers remain.

    Have they ever come close to recording a profit though, or are they still relying on an octegenarian?

    They lose millions year on year and were described as basically insolvent by a judge.

    It's a tax write-off for Ives which is why it still exists.
