Hi guys -

We promised to deliver as much boxing to you as possible, and we're still aiming to bring you two fights a week, including domestic and international cards. We know there are no live fights being shown this weekend on BoxNation and we will do everything we can to try and avoid this situation in the future.

We're working hard on setting up deals with international fighters and promoters, which has been made more difficult after a quiet December and January.

Please stay patient with us while we work as hard as possible to get the deals in place that will bring the fights we all want to see onto BoxNation for just £10 a month.

BoxNation are adding another terrific card to their already packed February schedule.

We’ll be announcing the show here on our Facebook page shortly.

Be sure to watch this space!

looking at the channel chad they asked us for ideas or what would make the channel good but it doesnt look like they are taking on board what we asked for. its just repeat after repeat of whats been on before
Thanks for the update.

I agree that the constant repeats of the same fights over and over is getting pretty tiresome. People had great ideas such as old classic fights from the 60's, 70's and 80's. Theme nights like the best of Prince Naseem Hamed or Joe Calzaghe. Documentaries old and new. With Frank Warrens ever growing stable surely they could knock together a 30 minute boxing news round-up every night with interviews, training footage and exclusive fight announcements. Alternatively a weekly boxing news round up on a Friday to compliment The Bunce Hour on a Monday.

I'm excited about their February announcement. I hope it's at least one of the American cards. There's 2 on HBO and 2 on Showtime. If I had to choose just one show, I'd personally like to see Marcos Maidana Vs. Devon Alexander however Andre Berto Vs. Victor Ortiz II is a very close second.
