    We have to pay £10 a month for Boxnation, Sky Sports subscription and £15 just for the Pacquaio-Bradley fight?

    What a joke.

        I cancelled my Premier Sports aswell. That's what you're talking about isn't it?

        They stopped showing fights after Boxnation.

        I can't believe this fights on Primetime. I genuinely shocked.

        Why haven't Sky or Boxnation got it?

          not sure on the poundage but it's 70 USD for a floyd fight in HD

          and hbo and showtime are 15 and 10 per month respectively if you have comcast (biggest cable provider in the states)


          i think 70 is around 55 pounds. could be wrong, though.

            Yeah, 70's about 55 over here.

            Can't really complain about £15 in your shoes

            But we don't usually have to pay for single fights like that. Especially if there's no UK fighters involved.

              and with what sounds like four different networks that cover boxing on your side you're talking about a sizable amount of coin wherever you live.

                Trust man Sky Sports is like £20 a month, box nation is £10 a month and then we get pacquiao vs Bradley on a **** channel with **** coverage and commentary and gotta pay £15. That means were paying £45 a month for boxing and most of the top fights are 4AM takes the piss man

                    The worst thing about Primetime is it's a ****ty channel, no HD and the coverage is terrible and we have to pay £15 per fight?

                    Lord knows why on Earth they are covering the Pacquaio-Bradley fight anyway. Why doesn't Sky have it?

                    Boxnation needs to hurry up and get HD aswell.

                      Yeah it's bollocks alright, didn't know Primetime was even still going. I bought a Khan fight on Primetime a while ago when his people had fallen out with Sky, and it was the ****test TV broadcast I've ever seen. It was like watching a dodgy internet stream, 4:3 ratio, low resolution, low framerate, sound and picture cutting in and out. Pathetic, and it cost me 15 quid.

                      I swore then that they'd never see another penny from me, and they won't. Shame because the nearer this fight's come, the more I've been looking forward to it
