Boxing on tv

In the UK it's mainly Sky Sports, Boxnation, Channel 5. I think Eurosport have some occasionally and there could be a weekly program that's on in the early hours on a terrestrial channel I think its called KOTV off the top of my head. That's about it really

Yeah, all the top boxing is on Sky and PPV.
C5 occasionally have deals with boxers or promoters, Tyson Fury for one, but even then the fights are few and far between.
Boxnation is stupid. There's no way I'm paying £10 a month for a channel that has a few fights, the worse presenting team ever and is not even in HD.

A few fights ?
Sorry but that is complete and utter garbage.
Also they don't have Jim Watt so that's all that matters.
LOL Box Nation, where do I start.
Firstly, there are free to air channels which are HD. Box Nation is a £10 p/m premium channel which also broadcasts adverts and they still don't have a HD channel.
Secondly, their studios are utter garbage and look like excrement.
Furthermore, their productions are dire as well. There have been several occasions where the slowcoach sleep-deprived plebs in the studio don't shut up and overlap with the start of Michael Buffer's intro. Also royally annoys me how they cut back to the studio straight after the final bell tolls and then don't manage to cut back to the venue in time for the post fight interview and the first few words get cut off.
I mean seriously, you're a channel that specialises in boxing, and boxing alone, so how dare you talk at the same time as Buffer?
Part of me dies every time I hear a bout I'm actually interested in will be broadcast on Box Nation.
