    I think ESPN will come good.....

    FNF is listed so am sure will be on.

    Got a buzz out of reading the information on the programme

    ''ESPN is among the world's leaders when it comes to televised boxing''

    That's really pised me off as it wasn't in Virgin's TV planner. I missed it:twisted::patsch.

    It was. I set it to record on Thursday, I think, along with the Tyson fights.
    Maybe it's a regional issue.

    Was it on the main ESPN channel? I had this problem the other day as well and missed an Ali documentary as it wasn't listed on my box but everyone else said it was on. Damn- it said something like 'Barclay's Classic Years' or something else. Must be a regional thing as I wouldn't have missed it if I saw it.

    I watched it. It had a few ad breaks but all in all i was very happy with it. No problems seeing the fighters and it was clear and well done.

    Looking forward to next week :happy

    Yep. I recorded it off ESPN HD but the listings are identical on my Virgin planner. Cinderella Man hasn't recorded twice now though. Been racing or something. I've also noticed that EVERY prog has the record series option which isn't working properly for me.

    was it a replay of the whole program including the studio chat? (i think pea was the guest) or did they just show some of the fights like ch.5

    Looking through the listings, there seems to be quite a lot of boxing programming which is a good sign. Most of it is repeats from Classics but being on Virgin there all new to me :)
    I think I'm going to downgrade my package and just keep ESPN and a few basic channels. This stuff gets way too expensive
