I understand where you are coming from, but why would you want to cancel your SKY subscription simply because the boxing coverage isn't up to scratch?
Let's remember, first of all, boxing is a minority sport, it's not one of the big sports in this country. Popular, but not huge.
Also, wouldn't it be worth keeping just for the main TV programmes? There is always something on, and if you allready have it, then it beats having only five channels to watch.
But what you should remember is that boxing was a mainstream sport till SKY got their grubby hands on its tits!...now ten years or so later they've milked her dry!...

Outside Manchester, about 25 min drive depending on traffic. No good for MEN Arena though. The printworks is best to have a night out and its right next to the Arena.

Well, with all ruddy day / night to kill there must be time to swing by for a couple early on.
And my tickets still haven't turned up. Bought and paid for ages ago now as well...
