Boxing will ALWAYS be on tv in the UK because it`ll still never lose its niche audience. Friday fight night is one of the highest rating shows on sky and setanta rightfully took advantage of britains lust for boxing by showing endless american cards.

This time next year there will be the same amount of boxing on tv regardless of the fact setanta go out of business!!
Have you got some figures?

I'm surprised if Friday Fight Night does great numbers, considering most of the shows are pretty crap. Think darts pisses all over it.
