Why wouldn't you want it on Setanta? Setanta costs **** all and is the better channel these days if you're a boxing fan. I haven't got Sky Sports and don't want it. The only thing they have over Setanta is that they have the big football matches, but I can always go to the pub to watch them anyway!

Yeh Setanta is pretty **** to be fair, I've watched it twice so far. Once for the Calzaghe fight and once for the Haye fight.

Setanta costs £10 a month.

don't mind setanta, better them than ****ing Johnny the bottler Nelson, but what i hate is the stupid black lines down the sides of the screen when setanta show over seas boxing, they tell me that it's the way they broadcast it in the states screen formats etc but they are trying to sort it out.

Its because we have different standards, namely PAL in GBR and NTSC in USA. Whenever NTSC is converted to PAL, the difference in the resolutions used means that small black bars must cover part of the screen, similair to the way that a widescreen movie has black lines on the top and bottom to make it appear to be in the 16:9 widescreen ratio.

Setanta is clearly better than Sky though, Sky is way more expensive and the only sport they have worth watching is boxing and football, and you get both of them cheaper on Setanta. Plus it helps I get Setanta for free :D
Good old Virgin media, I love you :luvbed:
