[PredatorHayds]

That's a shame, would have liked to have watched it live.

[broomy7s]

That's a disgrace that there not showing it live. 1 Show every 2 weeks is very poor at the moment what happened to 2 shows a week.

[Horse]

I might have to cancel allegedly soon.

I'm not impressed.

[afc]

It's a absaloute joke, allegedly were advertising that they were showing this live only 2 days ago on Twitter, now they just cut it with no explanation!

[JimJim2009]

Poor from BN, if you don't want to screen it live don't promote it as being the next live domestic show. I don't want them going bust over it, but the domestic output is poor. As good as the channel is, over the years it's become more of a provider of middle of the night shows that you record and watch the next day. The occasional mega show - 6 to 7 hours live - should not be the only domestic show for weeks at a time. He does several of these a year but with cancellations etc the domestic output is too low in my opinion. To paraphrase Eddie, it takes a special talent to show so little UK boxing on a dedicated UK boxing channel.

Hope not. A good 50/50 fight.

NOT A 50/50 Gary Corcoran will be on a mission he's as strong as an Ox

Butlers been on a good run though. Both would be each other's biggest name in the win column.

poor BN mot showing this I think their content is great but the one place they are lacking at the moment is domestic shows.

The seem to be going down the Sky route and having less but bigger ones thats poor what stood BN out above anything else is yes they'd show big domestic shows like last weekend but also smaller ones like this one (and their first ever domestic show Walsh / Appleby)

[mickey1975]

Two a week was the promise. Unfortunately, we got Walsh-Appleby twice a week.

I don't think BN has been providing very good value for money recently. They're charging the equivalent of a PPV every 6 weeks. I'll be cancelling my subscription if they don't improve soon.

a PPV on its own yes but its a subscription channel if you're comparing it to Sky they have what 3-4 pay per views a year plus subscription. We'll take it as 3.

Sky sports + 3 pay per views a year costs approx £348
Box-Nation for a year costs £144

Still getting far better value from Box-nation than Sky (from a purely boxing point of view)

[Boxerbeetle]

B0xnatio0n remains great value for boxing fans, I'll definitely be keeping it when I cancel Sky Sports next month.

Anyone know why the fight was pulled from the schedule though?

Or you could watch the best of BN on BT sports(Boxing Tonight) for no extra cost, albeit delayed.

That is definitely not the same!

they have also been having the WSB on there, decent quality fights from york hall.

buncey's show is superb, some of them fight to remembers are good and the overseas content is great. hardly worth crying about?

He's been on a good run and aint lost since 2011 but has only fought 6 times and the oppestion has been poor. Gary only turned over at the end of 2011 and has 14 fights which still aint loads but has been fighting higher class and is a natural Light Middle where as Butler has Dropped weight and towards the end of your career takes A LOT out of ya...

Should be a Good Entertaining Fight tho

[mickey1975]

It's a top quality five round professional bout. Better quality than 95% of action throughout the world.

X2. Anyone who calls WSB amateur boxing clearly hasn't seen much of it.

[palooka]

I saw Joe Joyce on BN in the WSB - he is in with a shout v anyone, can that guy crack or what!

[ShadrachSimmo]

I still feel Butler may surprise a few people here. I'll be having a small bet on him.

His greater experience and natural size could tell. Raging it's not on live though
