Thats dedication mate but I don't think we need such a sacrifice, I'm sure we can raise the £47.75 needed to buy them out.

Lets just wait for them to go Liquidate their assets and we will buy the Boxing rights and sack the other ****.


The Real Deal's Boxing Hour.

With all donaters as guests.

How does that sound ?

The only thing I watch on Setanta is the boxing. If they made a Setanta boxing channel with four televised cards a month, I would pay £10 a month for that.

I think we need our own Boxing station, if that means settin up a site to begin with then moving on. We should try get in touch with someone like Golden Boy about having a TV station dedicated to Boxing in the UK. Sky can get ****ed and we get all the rights to the Boxing hahaha. worth a try eh lads?

I'm a bit worried about the UFC show this weekend. And Waldo vs Chag, I bet that won't be shown, bust or not.

They need a worldwide boxing channel. In the US we have the Golf and Tennis channel. I don't find it interesting, but the fans of those sports must salivate over the fact they have nonstop access to their sport.

With all the fights going on worldwide they could fill it up with little need for constant re-runs. I don't even mind if they decide not to pay commentators, as long as I could see boxing regularly.

This could work.

£10 a month for Brits and the equivalent of that for Americans and everyone else etc.

If they wanted they could still charge us for PPV's.

I'm pretty worried about boxing in this country tbh, when Setanta goes tits-up and ITV4 cancels it. The money will go out of boxing, and we will be a real boxing pauper nation.

Looks like our buy out fund is taking off but we are even not close enough if we expect fight off competition from Sky and ESPN.

What you think we need to do ?

More farts in a Jar ?

Do some street miming or busking ?

Aye mate I did say myself that its down to bad management, they are using the same Administrators as a company I once worked for. Deloitte Administrators always close things within weeks of not securing new investors.


As for me being in the money, I'm as skint as you are !
I gots me debts too man.

If you knew what I was doing then you would believe that its no where near enough wages as it should be.

The Boxing is up for grabs now, no one has made an offer as its Football that always attracts the money first.
