Setanta was amazing for boxing fans, I mean picking up fights like Holt-Torres II just showed how great they were for UK Boxing fans. We'll unfortunately never get fights like that again in the UK, all we get are the occasional good Friday Night Fights card and Haye/Khan PPV's. I can't believe that sky aren't even interested in the Super Six.

Totally agree, Setanta where great for Boxing - even casual fans would talk about the fight at work, they had watched Sunday morning on Setanta not knowing who had fought.Setanta was amazing for boxing fans, I mean picking up fights like Holt-Torres II just showed how great they were for UK Boxing fans.

The FOTY JMM v Diaz was on Setanta, Sky would never have shown this fight.

Totally aggree.He's right, Sky had Ricky Hatton and Amir Khan, both of which appear on their premium Sky Box Office service. Setanta had all the big fights from American and Haye and Calzaghe and didn't charge extra for them.
Setanta was the best boxing coverage this country has ever had.Comment
