How much do you think it costs? cause its not as cheap as you might think. i got qoutes a while back for basic streaming and companies were wanting a few grand and that was just for broadcasting and web stuff, no advertising and that .More advance stuff would be more.

Now factor in a small show, were margins are razor thin, the cost aint going to help plus it could take away ticket sales away from fighters as some might just watch the stream .

boxing is a business as much as a sport, which i hate to say it but you cant hide that fact. And at Grassroots level this is more than true
I might be getting mates rates but why would you think i would post that if I didn't have the full facts?

Yes it's a business and it's struggling because there's not enough people with answers and too many people like yourself, with nothing but questions.

You're not grasping the model here, build a fighter profile which benefits the long term. Matchroom, for all their faults, do this very, very well. Fan zone/twitter ticks/IFL vids at every opportunity. Their fighters are never out of the news long. This is where Frank is failing. He's struggling to come to terms with this new way of giving fans more access.
It's not all about closed doors gyms.
Short term solutions are just that, you don't fix anything.
i am grasping the model, and you could be grasping at straws about the price because its the internet and folk do that. Long term gain may be good, but without the short term focus you cant get there mate

Yes MR have a great model and , but dont you think if most of the promoters had the revenue from sky and most importantly the exposure they would be open to do that ?

Kell Brook's back March 7th, so unless it's a Morrison show, he's fighting in Sheffield if it's first week of March.

Jamie i dont think that is a fair comment at all. For one the things your saying sounds more playground that what actually happens. I for one have been to see mike while ronnie was on the same show. pagans show for example, All or most of Mikes fans stood up and shouted for Ronnie!!!! And you keep talking about how boxers need to make ticket sales, you say you paid to watch michael at the Raddsion but you didnt buy a ticket from Mike himself?? He sold 30 odd tickets at £120. Pagans fight he had 7 tables full (which was on the night of a big football match) Anyway this is just pure childish talk. Your right all of the dundee fans should support all boxers but it seems your the one deciding theres a divide!
