Heavyweight boxing
 
Anyone watching the bout tonight? I'm tempted, but the last time I ever paid for one of these ppv boxing events was years ago and it was all over before I even got chance to get comfortable in my seat! :(

It's an 'On Demand Event'. Bit costly at £11.95 though. Especially if one of them lamps the other hard enough in the first round or two!

get loads of mates round to watch it with you and make them pay a pound each , that way you can all watch it together, it won't cost any of your much and if it is a short fight, then none of you will be as miffed!

I used to work the Boxing Night specials, used to be a really good laugh with the all drunks ringing up to have it put on and we'd have a party at work, them were the days :rolleyes:

Bit late now to invite. Didn't bother in the end. I think £12 for a fight is a bit much really. Would have paid £6 for it, but not double.

I remember once having paid to watch a Tyson fight which was supposed to start around 1ish. Invited several mates round to view it, but by the time it finally started (somewhere around 0430 but it's all a bit hazy now...well it was a bit hazy even at the time!) everyone was too stoned/drunk to take much notice!!!!!
