Setanta delighted with Haye-Barrett figures

[J.R]

Sky's boxing coverage sucks, thats great news for setanta and Haye!!!

[Dynamite Kid]

yeah setanta used to be unknown, now in my opinion they have better sports on than sky.

well with sky showing the normal British title dross and making you pay for every big fight im deffo in the Setanta fan club their broadcasts are getting better aswell

its the Buncey effect

i think they are a year or two away from surpassing Sky in terms of all-round quality, and the subscribers will follow

been with setanta for a year and im happy with them... esp this season as they have more prem matches

being able to watch my beloved west brom be hammered by the top 4 live is great

Sky really annoys me. Today they were showing the hatton-malignaggi press conference and they turned it off as soon as Hatton swore. It was after 10pm aswell.

[Addition]

Boxing is the only good thing Setanta have got, they're lucky to have Haye.

Good to see it doing well, cheers for the info. I watched it down a local pub and there was a bit of interest. It's clear there's a fair bit of ignorance to the HW division but this is getting people talking again, and into the soap that is, all the different fighters, their characters, styles and likely match ups.

I'd much prefer to see Setanta succeeding then Sky too. I do find it funny they signed a PPV deal with a prospect with no belts in Khan, whom just got owned. Meanwhile Setanta are having a great run with all the fights they've shown. Plus their subscription for one month for £10, and included in many home packages, big fights not on PPV, it's clear that reaps rewards rather than ripping folk off.

ahmen to that Kris

i hope they keep the prices at the right price for the fans and dont alienate the next generation of fans the way sky did back in the 90" when they took Boxing away from terestrial tv and put in on sky

why is that good for the UK, but a COMPLETE bust in the US???

301 million people live in the US, 60.7m in the UK. So its equivalent to 1.7 million people watching in the US.

Im thinking bout getting setanta but at the moment im still downloading all my fights, it seems great value for money sky looks like a complete rip off compared to it. The one question i have for people that have setanta does it still cut off after midnight on freeview?

lol Yeah me too i have a sky subscription at the moment and normally watch boxing on streams (Laptop)...But Setanta seem to be doing well with there coverage of football, boxing and other sports.

I like the fact that they show foreign football leagues like the french,german and foreign boxing fights.
