Have a look at their schedule of fights they have shown and are going to show I personally believe £10 per month is good value for money. There's no boxing on Sky Sports this weekend .
As for the payment through Paywizard I had no problem, direct debit , six months for the price of five I pay.

I found it easy to set up, very straightforward. Some quality fights coming up, too, that you won't see elsewhere; Groves-Anderson II, Mayweather-Cotto. Well worth the tenner IMO

Worth it IMO with Mayweather coming up, plus Groves v Anderson. They do show some poor fair, but the American bills are worth it.

I too found paywizard really easy to use.

It's straight forward to sign up, switches on immediately and the content is nothing short of essential IMO.

Ive got it and wondering why im paying £10 a month? im watching constant repeats of Chisora in Germany. load of garbaage. £10 per month for nothing. I cant cancel for another 2 months.

What a waste of money!!

I like the way they had Hart/Allegedly saying the Chisora/Haye brawl was totally disgusting and wrong however they dont mind showing the programme madness in munich most nights. Morals until money is involved as always.

:o For ten pounds (the price of two McDonalds meals) in Febuary you got
Hernandez v Cunningham, Donaire v Vasquez Jnr, Rubio v Chavez, Povetkin v Huck, Chisora v Vitlali, Mitchell v Lora, Dodson v Mckenzie.

Another tenner in March (three pints down the pub) you've got

Burns v Moses, Salido v Lopez, Groves v Anderson, Shane McPhilbin vs Enzo Maccarinelli, Arthur Abraham vs Piotr Wilczewski, Leonard Bundu vs Gianluca Branco

I'm not sure how as a boxing fan you don't see that as extremely good value for money.
Who cares about repeats, don't watch them.

Yeah. What's wrong with repeats? Would you prefer 'dead air' instead?

They show a lot more of the undercard than Sky Sports, and I'm finding that I barely have the time to watch all the fights. Well worth £10 IMO. You're getting at least 6 good fights a month for the price of 40 pints of milk from ASDA.

You mean you don't get 24-hour live boxing for a tenner? Disgrace!!

I subscribed as soon as the free version ended - been very well worth it.

Lots of boxing, much that wouldn't be seen anywhere else, some good documentaries (like the brilliant Billy Walker and Joe Bugner ones) and repeats of older classics.

And Bunce's Boxing Hour (or 90 mins some weeks) with some really good studio/phone guests/interviews - worth mentioning given how popular he is round here!

I'm living in dread of it folding and being back on the rations Sky and Ch5 offer.

Anyone know if you can get this without having a sky or virgin subscription, i have my box and card still just cancelled the sky because it was too much money so i could just watch a few fights, which is all i really use a tv for. I looked at the online option but not sure if it's up and running yet.

Is it an oversight or a decision not to allow B allegedly to appear as a filter option on the schedule?

I bought it for haye chisora with the intention of cancelling straight after however i mmust say its now 50-50 with skysports news as the screensaver for my life. Fights like alvarez mosley, cotto mayweather, cotto margarito 2 and even those heavyweight hour long programmes where they show say the highlights of say 5 heavy fights in an hour like hide tucker.... Plus, david price been signed up.... Sod all on, check sky437.

The groves bill last weekend was great too. For a tenner, which in 2012 money is, what, 3 pints, a bottle wine in a supermarket, 20 fags or a blow job off a moss side midget (so im told by khosai galaxy) ... Well worth it.

Its just the psychological principle of paying 60 for sky then another tenner for one channel that gets people. But ffs people with 10,000 posts on here begrudging a tenner?!?

I paid a tenner a month for Premier sports and the same for ESPN when both were showing boxing and the football but they both dried up, after good starts, so I cancelled. I was getting fed up with different channels buying up the rights for major fights, taking turns and forcing you to pay, even though I was paying for sky, they are doing the same with UFC, before it was free on terrestrial Tv, then it moved to Bravo ( on sky ), then PPV on Primetime, now it is on ESPN for ten pounds per month. With allegedly it shows more boxing, even though they have not honored the 2 live fights a week prediction, they also show all the undercard unlike Sky who just show highlights if you are lucky and channel 5 who don't even English or British title fights sometimes, under Fury and Eubank. You can't complain at a tenner a month for allegedly, it's not perfect, but worth the money, in the states you can pay between $100 & $200 per month for all the different channels.

Love the channel, still want it in hd and live weigh-ins for big fights, but for a fraction over £2.30 per week it's a bargain for a boxing fan !

I agree totally. The Broner bill & Groves fight were excellent. Well worth the money of 3 pints a month!

22/8 Burns v Mitchell

Shame the Brian Rose v Sam Webb fight isn't happening now though. Best fight on the card that was, for me.

I recently switched from Virginmedia to Sky and am not subscribing to b allegedly again until September. Unlike Sky's boxing coverage, b allegedly show nearly all if not all of the undercards. The academy is good too, showing the prospects. I think they've finally signed some MMA deal as well. It's just a case of riding through those quiet periods. Plus you get Buncey every week.
