Frank Warren leaving Sky

[Master]

We are getting ripped off at least all the boxing was on sky at one time so we paid for the subscription, then they start having PPV and now each promoter has set up their own channels. The greedy bastards, hope they go bankrupt and die.

And so the cycle starts again. Boxing has been on a merry go round for a few years now, alternating between paid and terrestrial channels, hopefully this means more of the promoters picking up a pay packet from someone like ITV, Channel 4 or 5, and boxing starts coming back to terrestrial again.

Promoters putting all their fights on their own channel isn't a viable business model in my view, as it eliminates 99per cent of the casual viewers that are needed for successful advertising and sponsorship. Hopefully in a few months we'll be back to the days of seeing massive fighters on terrestrial broadcasters such as Eubank and Benn were in their day, and more recently Calzaghe.

It seems to be going in the opposite direction a select few can watch it on a channel not everyone has access too. Warren will go down the PPV route, where is marsh when you need him.
