Now showing teleshopping daily. Is this a sign that the channel isn't working out financially?

Brings a bit of extra money in and there's only so many re runs they can show during the week, they've added a few new shows like iFLs, think there's one on every night now, so I don't think they're doing too badly if they can afford to produce new programming.

It is live 24/7 so they can keep it on, there's no shutdown in programming at any stage of the day so it is technically still 24/7.

I don't have the channel as I live in France but my dad has it back home.

What annoys me with it is the constant re-runs. In France, there's a channel called Kombat TV (or something similar), they show all types of boxing (muay thai, kickboxing...) and also amateurs and women. It encourages you to watch it much more than talk show on Thursdays and Fridays!

I'm very happy with it like many true boxing fans

It's a boxing channel. Their claim will be that 24/7 refers to the channel showing programming at all times, with the dedicated boxing channel bit referring to the fact that the channels purpose is to show boxing.

It sounds like a desperate quote to me, it's a great channel but 24/7 dedicated boxing channel it is not

It isn't but they can legally claim it is without repercussion, all down to the interpretation of the wording.
