In what looks like the boxing mismatch of the year of almost heavyweight vs lightweight proportions, in the red corner stands the lightweight incumbent; UK Network PLC whilst in the red corner stand the 3 Heavyweight challengers of Netflix, The Queens Diamond Jubilee and the Mobile Olympics.

2012 will witness the biggest traffic assault on UK network PLC in living memory from 3 major events

• The launch of Netflix to UK audiences in early 2012
• The Queens Diamond Jubilee in June
• The Mobile Olympics in July / August

The big question: Will UK Network PLC cope with this assault?
