      Good to know man, thanks.

      I've actually done that before, and to be honest I'd pay more just so I don't have to listen to Mario Lopez and Brian Kenny.

      Sweet man. Thanks for letting me know. I just didn't want to live in a world where soldiers get to watch WWE and not boxing. I enjoy both, but WWE is just more out of habbit at this point. Also thanks for everyone's service.

        Not anymore. They used to have a lot of the fights on a few years ago. Now they'll only pick up a fight if it's like Floyd or Pac. They show all the UFC fights though, which is cool I guess but I don't watch them.

          So I guess TS is stuck watching BATISTA and LESNAR going from WWE champion to UFC champion back to WWE champ for the next couple of years. Sounds like fun!

                Ehhhh, they have the big fights on.... that's about it.
                The ships sometimes have PPV fights on them while they're underway..... just like Pacquiao or Floyd though.
                Pretty sure in the end it's up to the CO
