    I'm 18, unemployed, and waste a lot of money on drugs.

    I still pay for boxing.

    You people complain too much.

    That's not bad aslong as there's no charge for opting out like there was with setanta?

    PPVs are poor value, but I agree with everything else. I'll gladly pay for a channel showing a decent amount of boxing, even archive stuff if it's of a high standard.

    :lol:. I've said the exact same thing so many times, pal.

    I think it's more of a sheep thing. Some cheap ******* disagrees and the rest just follow up.

    Mugged off? You pay a small fee and you get to see a Boxing event. The event will most likely consist of 3-4 fights. The main event will most likely include at least one elite level operator. Again, this is a Boxing forum. We post here because we love Boxing. Don't want to pay for the PPV? That's your prerogative, but don't come onto a Boxing forum and judge other posters because they paid to watch an event. That's ****in' ******ed. What needs explaining? We like Boxing, we pay for it. :huh

    Boxing fans on this site are outrageous. We long for a dedicated channel that shows Boxing, we finally get it, and what do I hear? "It's not in HD!", "the production sucks", and my all-time favourite, "the background on Bunce's hour is low-res and ****". **** OFF! :lol:

    Yep i can only moan about certain PPV's but for the most part i don't care about dropping 15 quid on the sport i love. Tbh i've gone to football matched paid 50quid to watch a dire game for 90mins in cold. As long as i see the PPV in decent quality then i'm happy.

    Boxing coverage in this country is pretty dire, but we often get high quality cards for free when the Americans have to splash out. We should be grateful.

    I've never complained about a PPV in my life. If I don't think it's worth the expense, instead of ranting and raving on an Internet forum, I simply don't pay for it. Every time a big card is announced on PPV, you can bet your ass there is a thread in the General Forum saying it's bull**** and that anyone who pays for it is also bull****. Wait, what? :-((

    I've also very rarely complained about watching boring fights live. If you want gaurantees then go watch WWE. This is real life. Anything can happen. Lives are on the line.

    I'm more of a Calpol kind of guy, Akhi, but good choice all the same.

    Totally Agree Especially your final point, Boring fights make you cherish the great ones. Every sport has boring fights and nights and then great ones.

    As you say find it strange the way some go on about paying a tenner or 15 pound for a PPV/Channel Subscription.

    To be fair that sounds like how the WWE promote their events.

    Yeah, but you will still be paying month-by-month, they're not just going to take it in one chunk.
