Any news on Premier Sports?

I'm totally gutted. I've just read that ESPN have sold the rights to ESPN Friday Fight Night to Premier Sports for the next 2 years. ESPN Friday Fight Nights is the only live boxing ESPN UK ever show. I can't believe they've sold the UK broadcast rights of their own bloody show to a competitor, a competitor I can't yet subscribe to on Virgin Media. For me personally, Premier Sports is now a more attractive channel than ESPN in terms of what I like to watch.
