    Boxnation is done

    Maybe if you all worried about how you watch boxing instead of what we're over here doing this station would still be active.

    Boxnation was the only sub I ever had, man, and at one time it really was a quality program, but I let it lapse gotta be close to 2 years ago cos they just weren't getting enough fights and besides I was staying up less often anyway and catching the fights in the a.m. Shame to see it go though., I'll miss Bunce's dulcet tones.


    One of the Karate dudes at my gym might be out of a job though... used to work on the production team I think, but I never really got to pick his brains on it.

          Once Warren got the BT deal, BoxNation was toast.

            I use to get the Box Nation Feed all the time back in the day for certain PPV I didn't want to Pay For. Steve Bunce was funny, they use to have that man up 4am covering boxing nothing but respect for Bunce! RIP Box Nation

              Boxnation was done the day Frank Warren linked up with BT and gave millions of BT Sports subscribers free access to its entire content, apart from his PPV events.

                Sky sports is just too big. BT got involved and frank warren used them instead of “his?” Box nation. We really could do with BT putting up some real competition but reality is there only decent fights (in my eyes) are on ppv anyway

                  I used to love BoxNation; Bunce, Jones et al were great to listen to.

                  The end was obvious when BT started showing Warren's fights. They stopped getting the big international fights too a while before that, at one stage they almost always delivered them.

                  I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did to be honest. It was one for the hardcore fans..I didn't know many people who subscribed to it. A shame.

                    Fml I watch it at least 30 minutes everyday from the states. You can always tune in and watch some old scrap no matter what time it is.
