    If you plan to order the Wladimir - Chambers PPV from Klitschko.com, it goes on sale Monday. If you are in US, Canada, or PR, and want
    to see the fight live, this is your only option.

    Here is the link to purchase:

    Order it ON MONDAY, or as soon as possible, leaving as much time between your order and the fight as possible. Don't wait until the 20th to order.

    Why?

    Well because it's an internet stream, and to give [FONT=&quot]Triumph Media Group[/FONT] (the company providing the stream), a good estimate on the bandwidth needed, as many orders as possible should be placed in advance. If everyone waits until the last minute to order, they might not be prepared for the bandwidth they need to support it. Yes, they should be able to adjust on demand for anything needed, but why add what could possibly be a problem when it's not needed. ORDER IN ADVANCE!


    WATCHING ON YOUR TV INSTEAD OF COMPUTER MONITOR
    If you want to watch it on your TV screen, instead of a computer monitor do this: If you have a HDTV just connect it to your computer and use it in place of your monitor. This is what I am doing. The exact method to connect will vary depending on your computer inputs and TV inputs. For myself, I'm using an HDMI cable that runs from my computer to the plasma. It works great for Hulu.com, so I expect it should work well for the fight too.

    If you aren't sure what connections or cables to use, just look at your computer and TV, then search Youtube for how to videos..whatever setup you have, there should be something on there to tell you how to make it work.

    Oh, and if you need cables, Monoprice.com is the way to go. Extremely cheap! I got a 35ft HDMI cable for $30 total with shipping.

    And remember, you can use this setup to watch anything from your computer, not just this particular fight, so it's well worth the cost of any cables you might need to purchase.

    UPDATE: It looks like the undercard WILL BE SHOWN, according to the banner here on ESB

    I think it is **** that you guys are forced to watch the fight through your ****ing PC. In the UK the fight is being picked up.

    For me, I won't know until I see the final product. If the stream ends up being of good quality, no buffering or anything, than it's worth $15, I won't mind paying that. But, if the quality sucks I'll be disappointed.

    Hmmm, I'd just rather watch the fight on my TV and record it if it's any good. I really don't like the idea of internet PPV streams and they always have the potential to be ****.

    Ah well, hope it works for you. :good

    Well yes, if I had the choice between a regular TV broadcast, or an Internet stream, I'd go with the TV broadcast every time. I'm just saying if it ends up working out well, I won't mind spending the $15. :D

    Here's a video that should help some. There are many other
    videos depending on your exact setup, just search.

    If youre in the UK youre getting ripped off as well, buy a sat dish and pick up the german satelitte its free to air FFS even in the UK


    I cant believe the UK sky charged for haye Valuev


    another free to air station that can easily be viewed in britain u can probably reallign your sky dish christ lo


    Consider what u pay for a year of subscriptionm now consider with that years money u can get a motorized 1.2 metre dish that obviously moves to any satelitte that you want , get a techno box that can store only lol 10 000 channels and no bills whatsoverl

    100 % free and legal
