Klitschko/Gomez fight not on ESPN anymore.

Why do they want us to pay money for espn classic? Are they ******ed? Not even a rich ******* would buy that ****. It probably is free in some ppls packages but why did us Comcast people get screwed? It used to be free on comcast now I magically have to pay money to have espn classic.

I feel for you cats......I really do......I don't know how they doin' the time thing in America but in Germany its on LIVE at 10:05 pm on RTL.......all I know is that its a 6 hour time difference between Germany and the East Coast.......so if the fight is comin' on ESPN classic LIVE.... it should be around 4 pm EST.

What I'm really pissed about is how espn doesn't know how to organize **** right and put it on a paid espn channel. When it was suppose to be on a free espn channel live. It got booted off free espn because of some gay wrestling **** that no one watches?

**** ESPN. ESPN 1, the same network that airs world series of poker on that network occasionally

It is a timing issue. The window on ESPN was 5-6:30 pm ET. The Germans agreed with that. A few days ago when everyone was going over things in a production meeting the Germans said the fight wouldn't be able to fit in that window and since ESPN has a contractual obligation to start its coverage of the NCAA wrestling championships at 6:30

I know you explained that already, it still doesn't stop me at being pissed at espn. Atleast they could make epsn-classic free for that time period slot so the fans of boxing wouldn't get screwed.

What i don't understand is how comes the states has to pay for ESPN classic and England doesn't, or is it a different channel in the programs it shows? cos te fight is not on ESPN classic over here, any idea what channel it IS on?

I think it has to do with what packages you have, I used to get epsn classic for free with Comcast... But now all of a sudden they want me to pay for it. The package I get we got hbo, showtime, and starz channels from comcast.

My cable provider is Comcast, we used to get espn classic for free but not anymore... I don't know why, like the package changed some how. I'm sure if I had another cable provider I'd probably be seeing it.
