You could be right. Like any premium channel you only have to keep Boxnation for 30 days. So if the quality and volume of fights drop after a couple of months, you can simply cancel the channel. The guys at Boxnation need to continue delivering the goods on a regular basis to keep people paying. It's the only way the channel can succeed.

I don't mind £10.00 per month personally as long as I'm getting plenty of live action each month. I usually buy every PPV show. In the past year I've bought, or shared the cost with my brother for the following:

28th November 2010 -Carl Froch Vs. Arthur Abraham - £15 (Primetime)
15th April 2011 - Amir Khan Vs. Paul McCloskey - £15 (Primetime)
20th May 2011 - James DeGale Vs. George Groves - £15 (SKY Box Office)
04th July 2011 - David Haye Vs. Wladimir Klitschko - £15 (SKY Box Office)
22nd July 2011 - Amir Khan Vs. Zab Judah - £15 (Primetime)
19th September 2011 - Floyd Mayweather Vs. Victor Ortiz- £15 (Primetime)
12th November 2011 - Manny Pacquiao Vs. J.M. Marquez - £15 (Primetime)

7 shows cost me £105.00 in total. Each show runs about 3 hours so my £105.00 got me roughly 21 hours of viewing. When you take this into consideration, you must see how boxing fans see a dedicated channel for only £10.00 per month as great value.
