It's very likely. Just noticed that Boxing Channel Media Limited, the company name behind Boxnation, changed their address a couple of weeks ago to the BT Production Hub in London.

There is a good chance if something is happening it'll happen before 16th September.
16th September is when their first ever PPV show takes place. No details of how the PPV will work, how much it will cost or which platforms it will be available have been released yet.
I suspect they will want it on as many platforms as possible as they plan to do around 3 or 4 PPV events in 2018.
It's possible a deal could be done to have Boxnation added to the XL package, at a very reasonable rate for Virgin Media, in return for Boxnation PPV being added as a channel / an app that features on TiVo and V6. It's clear their deal with BT has provided financial stability to the channel. They now seem keen to explore as many revenue streams as possible.
Following their deal with BT, Boxnation signed a deal to have the channel included in the Eir Sport pack in Ireland:
