  • Setanta Boxing

    Did anyone see the Morales-Diaz fight on Setanta last night?

    great fight, but the setanta set up was well ****.

    the whole show had a black border around the screen, and the studio analysts were enzo macca (who was enthusiastic but not very insightful or coherent) and the boxing news editor (who was boring and unenthusiastic). they really needed someone with a bit of charisma and experience at this kind of thing in the studio. ****, even johnny nelson would have been better than these two!

    plus, they couldn't even spell the names of a couple of boxers correctly, so setanta will apparently have live coverage of some guy called Manny Picquiao and also Fernando Vagras.

    fairplay on them showing these fights, but they really need to sort out their production if they want to take on sky sports.

    Yep the coverage on Sentanta is a joke! They really have to have a major shake up.



    It was the same after hatton-Castillo, after the fight they went straight back to the studio to hear what the pundits had to say, dont get me wrong i want to hear what they have to say but that **** can wait till atleast 5/10 mins after the fight.

      I saw the Hatton fight on Setanta and it was a bit poor quilty. I unsubscribe to it after the fight as there wasnt any boxing seduled on it for ages and wasnt really worth the monie to watching ****ty girly American rugby(Nfl) LOL.

      I heard the Calzaghe and kesseler fight is being showed on it?

          Well no not really, as a subscriber i have every right to mump and moan about the quality of product im buying. The Sentanta coverage is ****in terrible and the sooner they rectify the problems the better. If they want to be as big as Sky for Boxing and Football they need to get their **** sorted out.

              Hey Rooq... no kidding here. But this weekend i was complaining about the set up of Setanta. In sheffield, they've got bill boards up advertising the covering of teh footy season and they list one of the teams whose games you can watch as...

              "LIVERPOOL UNITED!"

              How ****ing ****** is that. You'd think someone would notice.

              Guess it could be worse- you might have "Manchester Rovers" or "Newcastle Albion" or something..


              I reckon Setanta are pretty ******.

                  i'm happy they are showing the fights, but i'm worried by their lack of professionalism as it implies the production team know **** all about boxing and may not be so committed to the sport over the long term.

                  and as another poster said, if you're paying for the fight you want your moneys worth - its not just the fight itself but the whole show...its not like i just switch on the channel for the fight and then immediately switch off, i do tend to watch the bits inbetween fights as well.
