When Frank Warren originally set up Boxnation with Simon Green two years ago, he knew that he never had the economies of scale to make it a standalone success. He also knew that if he built up the infrastructure and obtained a decent subscriber base, that it would be an excellent assett to sell on.
Simon Green is now head of BT Sport and talks on a takeover of Boxnation began on 13/1/13. Up until now the main priority for BT, however, has been to sucessfully launch their main channels on 1/8/13.
