Great to have live boxing back on Boxnation tonight.

The undercard isn't the best but Robert Stieglitz Vs. Arthur Abraham should be fun. I think that we might see an exciting performance from Abraham. I fancy him to stop Stieglitz.

Noticed Boxnation are taking a bit of stick on Facebook for showing MMA on the channel. Whilst their coverage of MMA won't have an impact on their boxing output, subscribers of the channel just aren't happy. Subscribers are asking why Boxnation aren't investing the money in launching a HD channel, or securing more boxing rights, instead of investing in MMA.

Got to admit, I'm totally against MMA on the channel too. I pay £10.00 per month for a boxing channel. MMA bores me to tears. I don't want any of my subscription money going into MMA. I want my money to be invested in boxing.

I've got a feeling Boxnation might have to do a u-turn on their decision to screen MMA if subscribers keep on complaining. Surely Boxnation aren't arrogant enough to ignore their customers wishes?
