Rejected petition Boxing on the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC)

More details

This petition has been created in the hope that the BBC will once again show and invest in professional boxing.

The interest in boxing has been increasing however the downside is that the public must pay more on top of their TV licence to view it on channels such as Sky Sports. Even then this is sometimes not enough with Sky Sports making the biggest fights pay-per-view charging £15 per event.
