Mayweather v Mosley on Sky

[Master]

Great news the fight will be on Sky sports, not PPV and I have to subscribe to them for this fight. I have not seen a live fight since Cotto v Manny Pac. I cannot wait for this!!!!

[littlebif]

We get a great fight like this not PPV.Then we have to pay for Haye-Ruiz and had to pay for Khan in the past

the census with sky usually is that british fighters automatically means PPV

Last big fight involving non british fighters on sky box office was pacquiao-de la hoya and that was only because they had a solid undercard back home!!

It was only ppv because of Khan, if Khan was not fighting that fight would not of been ppv.

yeah pretty good stuff.. i think my sky sub runs out just after this.

i went with virgin and also got a motor dish attached to the house to get alot of other fights.

so will be pointing my dish to the German RTL channel tonight to watch Klitschko - Chambers for free.

well worth the £300 it cost for the equipment and setup

How does this work Saddo, the dish thing? Do you need another set top box for it as well?

Is that the same set-up that gets you live premiership football that isn't on Sky Sports or ESPN?

yes it is mate... basically its like this... say a free german, france, spanish, italian, turkish etc etc channel is showing boxing/football you point the dish to that satalite that has that free channel on it and watch it.

some channels are scrambled but the ones in germany are free and show tons of boxing.

just hit boxrec and search the schedule via TV then go to a site called king of sats to see what satalite that channel is on if you don't know.. then point your motor dish to it... its pretty simple mate.

as for a new box yeah as this has nothing to do with sky tv they set thier sysem up to point to one satalite this system points to them all

but for me the box and motor dish from ebay cost £200 and i paid a pro sat guy to set it up for me for £120 ((you could set it up yourself but for me it was just eaiser to pay someone))

still aint had time to play with this new toy yet but there is a ton of other stuff that you can do with this setup that i would not publically post

[JazMerkin]

Sky apparently did very good numbers for the Mayweather-Marquez & Pacquiao-Cotto fights, so it looks like they're committing to more boxing.

It's also a good few weeks for boxing on British TV, when you factor in Primetime. We had Pac-Clottey last weekend, Wlad-Chambers today (although I'm out so not gonna pay for it), Dirrell-Abraham next saturday, then basically every following Saturday, Haye-Ruiz, Berto-Quintana, possibly Pavlik-Martinez (may be on Sky not confirmed), Froch-Kessler & Mayweather-Mosley. Then after that Mitchell-Kats, Khan-Paulie & possibly Cotto-Foreman.

It's almost like Setanta are back

They're going to ban all internet access to copyrighted material in Britain in a few weeks so watching Sopcast on a Saturday night will soon become impossible or they'll cut your internet connection. Do these Euro channels show Showtime/HBO fights or just European stuff? It'd be great if we could get them via satellite.

you can't get hbo not sure about showtime mate because im sure they send out a signal to a euro country... i need to read more on it when i have more time. ((still learning))

but some of the free channels show usa boxing now and again just like itv used to years ago if not moreso because boxing is massive in germany compaired to the uk...

like the free german channel ARD is airing Abraham Vs Dirrell this weekend so you get the odd showtime and hbo card just with a german jim watt

added to that you have all the rest of europe so you get alot for free cards and some of the local fighters you would never normally get to see coming through the ranks

It was only ppv because of Khan, if Khan was not fighting that fight would not of been ppv.

No it wasnt

Khan had a tune up fight against fagan coming off the loss to prescott

khan-fagan went completely under the radar that night domestically

[Fenster]

Skel is right.

It was a Khan PPV with the American card as the bonus (obviously to help sell it).

The only SKY PPV in the last 10 years or so that didn't feature a Brit or British card was Oscar-Hopkins. And apparently that did seriously shit - hence every big from the States goes on normal Sky Sports.

I was hoping there'd be some German version of Sky or Setanta that shows all the American cards live.
