What does it say for Klitschko when HBO passes on him and then Showtime passes on him

Just :stir

You know how it is....but in fairness I did say before the fight that Chagaev was ****, and I was right, I don't care how much nut-hugging you lot do :bart I'm not knocking old WALDO for doing what he usually does but Haye would have been a better fight.

White owns Ramsay...I told you all along, and I'm always right :smoke

 

The best ESPN gives us boxing fans is ESPN2 and they don't offer a HD version of their fights. This US fan will be ****ing pissed if his fights go from HD to the shitty feed that ESPN provides.

 

:roll::smokeblood:adminlol:

 

ESPN doesnt have HD on fights?. I could have sworn I saw something...either way, Im sure if they go to ESPN, they will work it all out buddy. I will mention what you said:good:good

 

Im about to start Mortal Fear...damn..564 pages:smoke

 

They show the fights on the HD channel, but it's the SD feed with awful bars on the sides of the screen.

Actually, if the Klitschkos could get their fights on ESPN/2 and force them to show all fights in HD then I would enthusiastically be for it and thank them for making the ESPN experience better. ESPN treats boxing fans like second class citizens compared to the kinds of feeds they give other sports. I'm not going to complain too loudly because at least they're showing fights, but the image quality is pretty poor.

 

the problem is ESPN is piggy backing off of RTL's feed that is why it is not in HD.

The only way for their fights to be in HD is for ESPN to send a camera crew out to Germany which I doubt they would do.

Or if the Klitschko's fought in the States and it was on ESPN there would be no problem because they would be on site and could transmit an HD feed.

:good

 

You're right about the Germany thing, but ESPN currently doesn't even show HD for domestic fights.

 

Those two aren't major titles, IMO. Organisations that rank dead people or allow Mattthew Hatton to fight an eliminator aren't worthy!

They are about par with the ring title.

 

they did for the Peter/Chambers fight I am not sure why they did for that one but no others. If it was on ESPn and not ESPN2 it would be HD.

 

damn...you the man:good

check out what "Axe Man" wrote in the "Wlad running scared from Haye thread"...WOW

 

Technically, even ESPN2 is in HD (at least for DirecTV), but for whatever reason they don't film most (I can't recall the Peter/Chambers fight) of them in HD. Maybe most networks don't carry ESPN2HD so they just say "**** it".

 

Funnily enough I'm just re-reading that right now....bit of a rip-off of the style of the Thomas Harris ones but still a great read :yep

As I said, I'm always right :smoke

 

you the man

 

As big a coward as David Haye shown himself to be, I'd pick Evander Holyfield to lay his ****ing ass out.
