    I think I'm right in saying you have Virgin instead of Sky. Can't get Virgin where I live but is it that much cheaper for the equivalent package?
    They are all doing deals now, so it depends on what works for you. I have the bundle phone,internet,XL TV package which includes Europsort and ESPN (and kids stuff like Ben 10 for the children) for £48 + calls which is normally another £10 a month. That works for me but sky do bundle packages too as do BT.
    Thanks, sounds pretty similar to Sky pricing for what your getting. I get the full Sky package plus HD add on and broadband for £60 ish a month. Previously I was on a family pack with just sp1 and broadband and it was £32 a month. Would go back to that plus boxnation if things got tight again.

    Yes get the HD too and the box that records but yes decisions to pay the bills or watch the boxing?

    I know what Tam and the other guys are saying - yes £10 is fuck all and I wouldn't bat an eyelid at paying three times that for a round of drinks on a night out , but with TV its now the principle for me.

    I am not being held to ransom by these different tv companies and channels etc.. just so more money gets pumped into the game and the fighters, footballers can have bigger fucking pay packets . I refuse to get ESPN, haven't paid for a Primetime fight yet and am pretty certain I won't be getting Boxnation.


    Thats the issue guys - not the £10

    I understand what your saying too mark, but the promoters and tv companies don't give a shit do they? And the only way we can watch legitamate boxing is to pay for it. Annoying as it is, we have no choice.

    I wish they would do this with cricket too! Then I would dump Sky and kiss goodbye to the joke that is football!!!
    Box Nation works out quite good if you look at it on a daily budget!
    This signiture is up as ante in a 'sig-bet'. Wanna bet anyone?

    Agreed Sky is a rip off and the Premiere League football is a joke.

    Cool, it's worth it mate. I find the coverage quite old school, bit like world of sport crossed with grandstand, and you get virtually everything sky doesn't. So win, win.

    Welcome to endless repeats but they are starting to show old fights like Benn v Eubanks v Galzahghe.

    Also the big one May 5th.

    How does Box Nation work? I am coming home for a fair while this summer and there is no way for me to follow fights as I will be lacking a computer. How do you set it up and just how does it work. I really don't want to miss fights for nigh on 2 months and would like to watch at home.

    the good thing about fight night is they start broadcasting at the start of the card so you get to see all of the undercard

    you can usually watch the majority of the undercard for free and then it will go off half an hour before the main event
