    Even his fight with Dimitri Sartison cost about the same

    No , Haussler was on national TV. Kessler was a great hit. Got a bigger rating than the national Danish socer team.

    No they made a deal so everybody with the basic cable pack could se it for free. Not often it happens but sometimes.

    But we sometimes get to see the big hbo fights for free. Hatton vs. Pacman, Jones Jr vs. Calzaghe etc. But Kessler is expensive and people pay ;)

    The fight was broadcasted by ARD in Germany; ARD is also available in Denmark.

    Remember what happened when Kessler fought Beyer:
    Palle put the fight on PPV but the Danes didn't buy the fight but watched it for free on ARD. Palle lost a lot of money with this fight.

    its not that bad..

    ill take guess, that the average dane, might earn a little more, compared to the average american. Our minimal wage is high compared to other countries and our social system is very nice.. :yep

    These prices are normal in scandinavia... but they get paid more too, so its relative. I went to Norway and a pack of ***s was nearly a tenner!

    I find 500 kr. pretty expensive, but if the commentating was anything worth, I would gladly pay. But as it's probably Claus Borre I will rather wait until the fight comes with American commentators via alternative ways.

    Fair trade, I guess..

    When I first read this, I was appalled. Then I saw your location and it dawned on me that you were talking about smokes, not homos. :lol:
