    Why don't you go out to a bar and watch it. I'm sure this fight is big in America too, and sports bars should definitely be showing it. And I don't think you can do that unless you pay for hbo for one month then cancel

          Black Irish, call your cable subscriber and ask them. Alot of cable companies allow consumers to order for a day and they'll charge 1/30th of what it would cost monthly....

                depends if HBO is Digital in your region. If it is, you'll need the box to be able to watch it. You might be able to pick it up. If it isnt, then i think you can just call and ask for it. Service isnt contractual.
