Checked Box Nation website and you can only order it via their website! How pish is that? What about folk who don't have internet access or don't like paying for things online. Also it says in it's FAQ's that it could take up to 4 hours to get connected during busy times! I aint risking paying my money and not getting the fight due to 'technical difficulties'. Think I'll find a stream or check the video pages here tomorrow morning.
I love boxing, obviously, but I have to say I think it was much better in the days before PPV. Sure, you didn't have all the glitz, razmattaz, 24/7 and 4 week build-up (at least) but I think the fights were better.
In this climate £15 is much better spent in my petrol tank or shopping trolley. I just find nowadays that the fights almost never live up to the hype but this is because the fights are hyped waaaayyy too much bevause of the glitz, razmattaz etc, etc etc.
Just my two bob's worth.
Here in the US, you have to pay for HBO to watch the 24/7's, then you have to pay $60 to watch a crap or dishonest fight.
Tough to justify to non-fans.
Woah, that's harsh. I'm surprised people are still able to pay for it nowadays. $60! I'm sure that's around £40 in UK money. There's no fight on earth that would make me part with that.
Gatti v Ward trilogy for me. May not have been boxing brilliance but those fights had me on the edge of my seat the whole way through. Gotta love those tear ups. RIP Gatti.
It's kind of sad how little interest there is in these fights. I say that as I sit inside on my recliner when it's sunny and 65 degrees outside...
;10221859']Glad to see that there is interest outside the UK to see these fighters. As a Scotsman, I'm really proud of Ricky. Hope he keeps his belt tonight to set up a Unification in June.
Go Ricky!
Lol, Kev you got in there just before I posted. Don't be tempted outside in the heat, stay in and watch the fights!

Jeez, I must be the only one here who doesn't give a flying toss about either of these fools.
Wlad is boring. Haye is an arse.
I won't be wasting my time watching their ****ty little fight. Unless they knock each other out at the same time at the start of the first round. I may bring myself to watch that via megaupload.
Haye goes on and on that this is the fight every boxing fan wants to see. Oh really, stfu you clown. Your dick is that far up your ass it's a wonder you can walk.
Best thing about tonight was the emergence of Eubank Jr. Looking very much like a chip off the old block (including the jump over the ropes!) Although we didn't see much due to his opponents peek-a-boo style I seen enough from his pro debut to stick my neck on the block and say he will be world champ one day.
Fury on the other hand, more likely world chump. The man is clumsy, has **** defence (as seen in round 2) and will be found out when he is matched against anyone of any stature.
