Your right. I'm confussed because it's a Sauerland event. I just assumed it was from Germany, even though I've been reading and watching the pre-fight hype from Finland:dozey:

Just noticed Brandon Rios failed to make weight for his fight against John Murray and has been stripped of the world title. The fight will go ahead, as long as Rios doesn't put too much weight back on. Only Murray can win the belt. Murray was a clear underdog for this fight however pictures of Rios from the weigh-in are just scary. I think Murray will stop him. I wonder what the latest odds are?

See, this is part of why I have TiVo... not great at remembering schedules, or being there even if I do. :D

Still, you have to give us the skinny the day after if you have the time... I'm seriously considering pulling the trigger on this one.

Have you ever seen him fight, or does he just linger about in the ring before and after big fights?

On a separate matter, I've just been reading rumours that Brandon Rios has not eaten for 5 days! A final weigh-in will take place in 30 minutes time to decide whether his fight with Murray goes ahead tonight. I hope it does, John Murray could easily walk away with the world title.

I've got family and friends coming round to watch the fight on Saturday and I seriously don't need any hassle, stress or last minute calls to Virgin trying to resolve the problem. This of course would be the worst case scenario, but it could happen.

Can someone from Virgin clarify what is going on please?
It is now encrypted, so you should be able to check if your subscribed or not by tuning in to see if you can view it.

Yourself and other boxing fans may be interested in the film "The Fight Of Their Lives" this Monday. It airs at 10.35pm on ITV1.

BoxNation appears to have been added to my package. The fight Of Their Lives will be unmissable Richard. It's a programme even non-boxing fans should try and catch.

cheers for the info.

I was going to sign up to this channel tonight, but they said it could take unto 24hrs to activate, Why? I could not take the risk in missing the big fight, so decided not to sign up:)

I took it up last night and it was on within 20mins but they only said half a hour to me. I phoned twice yesterday in the morning i spoke to the uk and they could not set it up for me and said they would phone back (they never did). And then i got through to India late on and they sorted it no trouble??? Maybe try again see what they say this time?

I got through to India and he said it could take between 2 to 24hrs, I cannot understand why it would possibly take that long in the 21st century!

It should not take much longer then a hour in my experience.

It usual takes about 1 hour or less.

When i added Sky Sports a while back it took 30 mins.
