allegedly home of BOXING

[clintonmcphilbin]

Just want to make the point that if you have a channel thats just for boxing
why are they not showing the full card dont make sense. As everybody knows who goes to live shows some of undercards are better then the main fights.

[pyenest77]

Even if they dont show them live they could show them in one of the times slots where they show repeats from years ago.

It would make sense.

The "Self proclaimed" home of boxing...

[rhino222]

Its b0llocks, thats what it is, big hairy rip off b0llocks.

[Mimmy]

Yes, but you cant pay a fighter the same few quid if he's on TV. There are reasons you know why those fights arent on the channel.

Its all money!!!

[leforge]

Chisora fights Vitali for WBC heavyweight title in few weeks, the tv audience will be tiny which is a shame deserves to be on bigger stage. Same night Eubank jnr second fight a few millon will watch!

[ShadrachSimmo]

You put it better then Wordsworth my good man. It's goin under shortly i think.

Then whats going to happen to all the fighters that are boxing on it. Think it last to June at least then it might suffer with Euro12 and Olympics.

Why do Steve and Steve talk as if the options were only big American stars or Karpency?
Why not mention the likes of Sillahk (yeah baby...), Bellew (rematch), Garcia (maybe a little unknown but very good Cuban), Kovalev (hard punching Russian) or even mention Chilemba as a future possibility?

[rhino222]

somebody needs their arse kicking. whoever organises the schedule needs shooting with their own sh1t.

i dont give a dam if they cant pay them the same as tv companies, they should have thought about that before they started the effin channel.

we need probably 4 live shows a week, 2 from home and 2 from abroad, one of the home ones can be 'small hall'.

we need something like a 'thursday feature night' with an hour documentary/career summary about a famous fighter.

we need bunces boxing hour once weekly, about ALL boxing and not just allegedly.

we need at least 2 shows per week that are coverage of old boxing shows.

we need it on BT Vision.

we need it cheaper for access via the internet.

we need the weigh in for big bills to be on live.

we need cross table Q&A sessions from boxers past and present.

Right you allegedly muppets, ive given you your blue print to survive, take my advice or your channel will fold by August 2012.

PM me if you want to employ me for anymore advice, this message is all i am doing for free!!

Looking at that channel its a big joke compared to Sky Sports presentation of boxing.

The pundits, commentary, lights, camera, production etc is all light years ahead of allegedly.

Sky arent daft, you are getting better fights on their channel (they put all their boxing on Sky Sports 1) which costs £14per month including football and a few other sports and not just repeats of one sided fight cards.

£10 a month for that other channel is daylight robbery in comparison (or £60 quid minimum).

I wasnt expecting the new channel to be perfect from day one and compete with a well oiled machine, but they have reneged on most of their promises and they arent even 6 months into the channel.

The beginning of the end for British boxing's most well known promoter. Sky will blackball him for going it alone.

Feel for Allegedly. Keep your chin up man Deserves a break.

Sounds good to me, but...

They need a lot more subscribers/investors to pay for all that!

There lies the problem there never going to be enough subcribers to make this channel work Which is a shame as they showing some good overseas fights.

good point, i found it hilarious when sillakh won recently and Bunce basically said he was shit! Sillakh is a very good fighter and would beat cleverley imo. Bunce knows eff all

[rhino222]

the key to the stations survival is to make it available for internet viewers, 4 quid a month, or 5...and im in like flynn, im sure thousands of others would be too!

They have no current plans according to their facebook page. They are showing stuff on youtube which they dont show on the actual channel!

[revporl]

Theu have Burns, Groves, Cleverly and some good overseas fights. It's not bad for £10 p/m really. And it's better, Brook/Hatton aside, than this http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12947,00.html

I think people are overly negative cos of who is running it.

Having said that, I haven't subscribed cos of the upfront cost, I'm not sure that it will last 6 months!

I have subscribed their been some pretty poor UK bills on it since it went subcription. Cleverly fight is a complete mismatch.

Its really not as bad as a lot of people on here make out.
Fair enough they havent had the greatest bills of late but there have some decent scraps.
As someone above eluded to, I think a lot of the hate comes due to who is behind it.
At the end of the day its £10 which though it may sound expensive (and could well be overpriced) is not a massive amount to watch a channel that is devoted to a sport that you are willing to make literally thousands of posts on a forum about.

These days £10 doesnt get you much (and I appreciate some people may not have that kind of disposable income in these times) but a tenner will get you
3 or 4 pints down the pub
a pack of fags, bag of crisps, can of pop and choccy bar
2 mcdonalds meals
christ, subscription to Graham Houstons site is $20 a month.

On top of that there are shows that could easily have been ppv (not that they deserve to be) and people would have forked out £15.

All Im saying is for less that £2.50 a week its not that bad.

Now for the flame throwers from all angles:)

The Cunnigham-Hernandez fight sounded like a cracker.

I held off over Xmas because I knew with family visits etc I'd never watch anything anyway. Then in the New Year I've just been waiting for soemthing I fancy to come on. With Chisora etc coming up I'll be signing up.

Can't help but think that I deserve a better deal from SKY now I can no loner watch Cleverly, Chisora, Mitchell, Groves on their channel.

I really want to see Frank's doemstic fighters plus some international fights that SKY wouldn't show. That's it. Old figths, old interveiws would be a bonus. I'll be signing up tonight.

[Gazmac81]

im signing up tonight also as i was waiting on some decent regular fighters coming on.

also with the Burns show and Anderson vs Groves in March i want to be able top catch them.

look forward to see mitchell tomorrow night , know nothing of his opponent but Micthell is always good to watch
