BT Sport deal could help Frank Warren poach rival Matchroom fighters

[Batman]

Am I right in thinking that Boxnation were going to make the Fury v Klit fight PPV

In that if you pay your monthly subscription then you get the fight as normal but you could also pay a one off fee to watch it if you didn't subscribe (because I believe there is an activation fee when you first subscribe along with the £12 a month

I don't think that their PPV's would affect existing subscribers anyways

I think the fight was due to be PPV but I do not know why it should be if BT pay them a fat fee and we subscribe to their channel.

Can only be good for boxing. Boxnation cards be shite so will need to be a lot better to get on BT Sports. Matchroom cards been pretty crap full of mismatches too. Might make them face tougher opposition. 30 UK cards for 2017 is great news though and with Warren having some good irish fighters hopefully we get a few more cards over here.

Basically if (like me) your a BT TV customer and pay for BT Sports you will get a "minimum" 20 of the 30 fights they will show per year, you'll get all the 24/7 shows like Bunces Boxing hour etc, i think you have to sign up for a separate Boxnation fee to see the other fights and the PPV fights - that is the thing that's gonna piss people off, and its still pretty unclear if that is the case.

Warrens not gonna just give BT the full rights to show all of Boxnations broadcasts on their sports channels as nobody will need to renew the Boxnation subscription which will kill it dead.
Can only be good for Boxing in the fact that Boxnation/BT will be trying to outdo Matchroom and vice versa as a lot of their shows will surely clash on Saturday nights so they'll both have to up their quality of events!
Warren has already said he'll look at fighters (Obviously Matchroom ones) who are unhappy and he now has massive bargaining power to tempt them into jumping ship.

Warrens always got a trick up his sleeve so this is gonna be interesting come the start of 2017 to see what kind of first event He/BT can deliver.
Let's be honest here it's surely gotta involve a World Title Fight as they have to kick off with a bang and hit the ground running.

Exciting times i think (hope)

Maybe a few years back I'd agree but with Match room and Sky so so dominant and successful at the moment, who would leave?

BJS is carrying BN atm imho, they take shots at Match room fighters constantly, while I never hear a thing about them from anyone over at MR.

I dnt care. I dnt have BtSports and this won't make me get it.
