BoxNation on Virgin Media?

[Chad]

Simon Green, the chief executive of the Boxnation boxing channel backed by Frank Warren, will be leaving Boxnation to join BT as the head of their new BT Sport pay-TV channel.

Wonder if he'll try and take Warren, and some of the boxing rights in place with Boxnation with him?

Not much really. Here is Boxnation latest schedule:

NOVEMBER

Thursday 1st - Junior Witter v Frankie Gavin

Saturday 3rd - Marco Huck v Firsat Arslan

Friday 9th - Paul Butler v John Donnelly

Friday 9th - Ovill McKenzie v Enzo Maccarinelli

Saturday 10th - Nathan Cleverly v Ryan Coyne

Saturday 10th - Abner Mares v Anselmo Moreno

Saturday 17th - Antonio DeMarco v Adrien Broner

Saturday 24th - Robert Guerrero v Andre Berto

Saturday 24th - Sharif Bogere v Richard Abril

Friday 30th - David Price v Matt Skelton

Friday 30th - Freddie Flintoff v TBA

DECEMBER

Saturday 1st - Austin Trout v Miguel Cotto

Saturday 15th - Ricky Burns v Liam Walsh

Saturday 15th - George Groves v Glen Johnson

Saturday 15th - Billy Joe Saunders v Nick Blackwell

Sadly this weeks fight between Denis Lebedev and Guillermo Jones is off. Buncey did mention on Monday that there might still be some live action on Boxnation, but nothing confirmed yet. I'm guessing they'll pick up the live show in Italy:

Devis Boschiero Vs. Antonio De Vitis for the European super featherweight title. It's being broadcast locally by RaiSport. Should be real cheap for Boxnation to pick up so late.

I think most die hard boxing and Hatton fans will probably stump up the cash. Personally I find it very hard for Primetime to justify charging £14.95 for about 4 hours worth of live action when Boxnation gives you a whole channel dedicated to the sport for only £10.00 per month.

I usually watch big fights with my Dad, 2 brothers and a couple of friends. I'll pay the £14.95 if everyone else covers the beers, snacks and pizzas!

Would be a good test for Fury, much better than who he has faced in the last year.
