How many of you would pay $9.99 a month for a boxing channel?

Sort of like the wwe network type deal.
Able to access through apps etc...
Haymon should really just try to get something like that done because I can't honestly see these networks paying to air these shows after the current deal is up.

I know I'd pay $9.99 A month. that's a small price if we get 2 shows a month or more plus back shows to watch on demand at will. All the 24-7 type stuff etc...

Basically that would do away with the PPV model as well. At least with all his fighters under contract.
I know guys have that model overseas right? Box nation and sky? How many subscribers do they have?

Yes, assuming I can drop Showtime and HBO and all of the relevant matches of the day are on that channel. And if two fights shadow each other, they quickly get added to the "watch for later" database or something of that nature.

And when there are no fights, this channel should broadcast older fights all day long.

All boxing on one channel for 10 a month...HELL YEAH!!! But must be all boxing

Yeah in a perfect world but we know that's never happening...

If it covered absolute everything (PBC & HBO & foreign) with unfettered access, I'd pay $99.99 a month, honestly more. I already give Frank Warren more than $9.99 a month alone.

I wonder how it would do.

With the amount of hardcores streaming even basic cable fights, I don't think well.

[Mitchell Kane]

Depends on the boxing.

For just the PBC fights? No.

What exactly do you get from what you pay a month? Is that the box nation or whatever? Always wondered what you get for that subscription

With Box Nation you just get access to the live channel and some documentary stuff.

I also have the UFC Fight Pass and love it. UFC is a monopoly within that sport so they have the best fights and you have full access to their fight library, but still have to pay for the ppvs which I prefer to go out to watch anyways.

Not a chance. There are not enough quality new fights happening to keep things interesting and they would never be able to get the rights to most of the great fights to show them on their network. You could pretty much count out all the HBO and Showtime fights as well as classic fights that were shown on the Big Three networks in the past. This would leave them with a very limited library of fights to show and like many specialty channels, you would get 6 hours of programming per day, repeated 4 times. And the entire library would be repeated after a month or two.

Even if they did get rights to every fight ever broadcast, they would run out of content after a few months and go into repeat mode.

There is an all fight channel available in my channel package and I did not select it. Just from a free preview it was obvious that it would have been a waste of a pick. I am more than satisfied the way things are right now.
