Remember remember the fists of November! BoxNation leads the way with spectacular lineup of fights

LONDON (Oct 31) – A knockout November is set to take place on BoxNation, with the world’s number one channel to feature an incredible five world title fights including names such as Manny Pacquiao, Bernard Hopkins, Dereck Chisora, Tyson Fury and many more, all for only £12.

Unlike rival networks, ‘The Channel of Champions’, has not only stacked its upcoming schedule with a host of back-to-back world class bouts but has offered fight fans a truly remarkable value-for-money deal in doing so.

BoxNation subscribers will get a little taste of what the month has to offer starting this weekend when undefeated bantamweight kingpin Tomoki Kameda puts his WBO world title on the line against battle-hardened Mexican Alejandro Hernandez.

Then, on November 8th from the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, one of the most anticipated fights of the year is set to take place when Sergey ‘Krusher’ Kovalev will attempt to bring the man known as ‘The Alien’, Bernard Hopkins, back down to earth.

Hopkins story in the sport is already an extraordinary one, now, just two months shy of his 50th birthday, he will look to capitalise on his record-breaking achievements as he attempts to continue his unification of the light-heavyweight division.

Up against one of boxing’s most feared punchers, Hopkins will be aiming to strip the unbeaten Kovalev of his WBO crown as he looks to add to his WBA and IBF belts.

In a division bursting with a multitude of top names whoever emerges victorious will rightly be regarded as the undisputed number one at 175-pounds.

On November 22nd, one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world is back when the legendary Manny Pacquiao takes on the undefeated Chris Algieri with his WBO welterweight world title up for grabs.

The Filipino superstar will be the smaller man when he goes up against the skilled and rangy Algieri, who shocked the boxing world when he overcame the formidable Ruslan Provodnikov this summer.

‘The Fighter of the Decade’ Pacquiao guarantees fireworks whenever he steps into the ring and against the younger Algieri he will need to be at his best when they clash live from the Cotai Arena in Macau.

Also featuring on the card will be the sensational rising star who makes the first defence of his WBO crown against Chonlatarn Piriyapinyo, following his impressive win over the highly-touted Gary Russell Jr.

Capping off a monster month is the British blockbuster heavyweight showdown between Dereck Chisora and Tyson Fury as they battle it out to see which of them will go on to challenge Wladimir Klitschko for his WBO world title.

The heavyweight scene is becoming a vibrant one once again with Chisora and Fury leading the pack as they look to usher in a new era in what has historically been boxing’s glamour division.

The card at The ExCel in London is stacked from top to bottom with a mouth-watering chief support which sees Billy Joe Saunders take on Chris Eubank Jr in a middleweight contest set to have fans on the edge of their seat.

Saunders’, British, Commonwealth and European middleweight titles will be on the line, as both young stars look to prove they are the number one emerging talent from British shores.

Furthermore, Birmingham’s exciting talent Frankie Gavin is set to challenge the undefeated hotshot Bradley Skeete with the two men aware victory will catapult them to the next level.

That same night, live from the CenturyLink Center in Omaha, the supremely skilled Terence Crawford returns following his exquisite performance over the respected Yuriorkis Gamboa, when he puts his WBO title on the line against Raymundo Beltran.

Crawford is rightfully regarded as one of boxing’s next true superstars, but Beltran has a point to prove after a highly contentious draw to Ricky Burns last year saw him lose his chance of becoming a world champion, with Crawford taking Burns’ belt six months later.

BoxNation’s November schedule is unrivalled for quality, content and value, offering sports fans a string of regular top class action over the coming month.
