Although this time, its under the guise of Oscar vs Pacman which will come as part of the deal.

I still think this is a load of bollox. We didnt have to shell out the 15 quid for Oscar vs Floyd so why this? Which I think is a bit of a freakshow anyway.

But fear not, we have "Britain's Only World Champion" topping the bill - Nicky Cook.

I just cant wait to empty my pockets.

That does seem a little strange. The British fans are pretty loyal so I guess they are relying on that.

funny that, but I will probably buy it now for Oscar-Pac.

Don't fancy streaming that, or watching the next day.

So it's both cards for one price? Suppose its the only way they could justify keeping Khan on PPV. I can see myself buying this maining for Oscar-Pac although I hate giving Frank ****ing Warren money.

**** this ****, we pay enough to Sky and Setanta as it is, kiss my arse.

I'll stick with the Carl Froch *WORLD TITLE FIGHT* for free rather than shell out for someone who just got laid out.

Il be watching the Pac man - De La Hoya fight via stream that night, il also watch the Khan fight the same way if i can.

More interested in the Froch - Pascal fight to be honest.

Wouldnt mind seeing the Paul Smith fight, which i think is on the undercard - Along with Rogan - Audley Harrisson??

I'm choosing to boycott Frank ****ing warren at every opportunity. Even if it means missing "Britains' only world champ" in action.

Being on the same broadcast as O-P, I'll order it. Otherwise, I wouldnt.

So Khan fights at 10pm in the UK then we have to wait a whole SIX hours before the Pacman fight in the USA on the same channel. Well thought out.

Ridiculous.

Yeah that does seem a little odd, I might actually just boycott this and stream it, especially when we have boxing on ITV on the same night.

**** Frank Warren he ain't getting no more of my monies.

Definately, do you have Sky Digital? If so then you will still the Box Office channels. I don't have Sky Sports but do have the Box Office channels.

I also downgraded setanta as they seem to have cut down on the fights they show. I now subscribe for £7 a month and get the internet stream instead of £13 a month for the chan on the telly.. if they show more fights ill go back to the telly

Even Oscar v Floyd was not box office as most major American bouts are not. i can;t remember any non-heavyweight ones being PPV. Last time was probably Tyson. It is always major British fighters as PPV. This was clearly Frank Warren's doing.

Sky ****ed him off when he was full of ****, so when he was on ITV he signed golden girl Khan. Then Setanta emerged and gave FW a one night stand, but Sky needed to get back in there making bucks once Haye and Calzaghe went to Setanta. Plus Setanta are not doing any PPV's, even Jones fight as they are still growing so would see new subsrcibers as PPV's. FW sensed that his ship was sinking and wanted to cash in ASAP.

Hatton & Calzaghe left him so FC mustn't be paying up why would Calzaghe go & Hatton as for Khan there's no future with a chin like that but his got his money made a glamour boy ITV is f....ed & soon enough Setanta will cash in & the big fights will be PPV.

Does Audley get KO'D by Martin Rogan?
