I have all of the channels on Sky except ESPN as I didn't believe in paying more than I already am. However, I am beginning to edge towards getting it anyway and was curious as to how much boxing they show on the channel? Do you get ESPN America as well as part of the price? For example, was the Judah fight on it last week?

I live in the US, but from what I understand the FNF series are delayed a few days, you get them on like Monday's or Tuesday's I believe. Not totally sure on that though. Do you get ESPN3? It's the online ESPN espn360.com check it out, if your cable company get ESPN you may get it, and that has free streams of FNF live and the replays stay up for a week.

Yeah they do show boxing regularly mate, I always watch Friday night fights, they've always got the up and coming prospects on there. Also if ur a fan of the ufc then ull like it, as they always have their shows on there.

Cheers fellas, will subscribe now.

I've had ESPN a while now, they don't show enough boxing for me but they do usually show FNF. This is normally on Friday's at 1-2am and then repeated Saturday, sometimes it can be 11.30am or as late as 2pm.

Paddy is right about UFC, good coverage and decent magazine show, it makes me miss Steve Bunce's boxing hour even more. Shame there's nothing like that on for the UK any more.

Sky Sports fight nights are switching to Saturday from August - and they are having a boxing magazine midweek so should be good. Seems Sky are finally becoming more interested in boxing again giving it a Saturday night slot.

It has been said ESPN do show the boxing a couple of days later. It is better than no boxing and had the Zudah fight last weeks which was a good finish. They have good analysis from Teddy Atlas and guest boxers who are surprisingly articulate and good and should be taken on by HBO and Showtime as they are better than there ex-boxers they show. They also talk about the other fights including Pac v Floyd.

Friday Night Fights is seasonal. Just a warning.

I had Top Up TV but have just switched to BT Vision so I miss FNF half the time (although I don't I record it at the folks') but anyone see this week's joke headliner? Cleverly could take those clowns apart, except he won't 'cause he's with Warren and he'll end up with the WBO belt.
