      Not surprising, really. Productive values are terrible. Their presenting and commentary team is awful, Steve Lillis is the only one I can even tolerate. Buncey is like a beery guy in a pub shouting at you over his Guinness. Barry Jones is as dull as ditchwater. John Rawling is boring too. Sky's team aren't much better, but I'd take Watt and Halling over Rawling and Jones every day of the week.

      Top tip for BN: ditch Rawling and Jones on the international broadcasts. The international commentary is always far superior. A few times Rawling and Jones have actually ruined a big fight for me. Their insights are as bland as ****.

        Boxnation was a a nice idea but Bunce and the other guy with their 'fat loudmouths down the pub' routine made things a bit too painful for me to subscribe. It's a paid-for service so they should've aimed the content at the hardcore fans not at people who only watch boxing because there's no football on that day. The main problem though is that they are the UK boxing channel but most of the top British fights are on Sky and they don't even seem to have a deal with any of the US promoters either.

        Warren was laughing at Haye being on Dave but he would've been helping the channel by getting that fight, guessing he just couldn't afford it and is cutting back on spending which doesn't make the future look too good for them.
        Yup, pretty much hit the nail on the head. Was surprised they didn't try to get the Haye fight. It's like they've stopped trying.

            I can't wait to read Frank Warren's response to this news.
