    i dont really care i really want to see this (on good quality tv) so theres no option, yeah 10 pound would be better but what is an extra 5 pound really i spend that much on food for dinner at work sometimes.

    from box office's prices in the past , froch vs kessler is worth it.

    Why? At the moment this is the way it is because of the lack of interest from BBC/ITV/ESPN etc. Until that changes if you want to watch top quality boxing you will be have to pay for it I'm afraid. Hoping that I wont have to pay £15 as I'm hoping to get there.

    I don't think £15 is unreasonable as Primetime don't show adverts, the fact that it's not in HD pisses me off however.

    Still, I'd rather pay £15 and support boxing on TV to ensure more of it.

    Does anyone know when the fight will start? Been looking about and seen things saying it will start 10.30pm Danish time which is half 9 here. Primetime only starts at half 9 so i would guess they will be pretty much straight into the fight. Even if they start coming out at 11pm danish time it's 10pm here so doesn't look like it is going to be very long show.

    i would'nt mind if there was another fight thrown in like arthur/taylor last time or at least if the undercard was half decent buts its awful, you'd think mick wouldve got at least another one of his fighters on it, even a thaxton or a glover?

    It's a bit dear but I'm sure we've all wasted similar amounts on things we've been less interested in. A trip to the movies is around £8 nowadays and quite a few movies are shite!

    Or free if you didn't even book it because the idiots forgot to encrypt the channel.

    :shock: That must hurt. £15 is standard PPV rates really for a big UK fight. This is a lot more significant than Haye-Ruiz and also a potential FOTY so I'm in.

    Even for streams i still pay about £2 for a much better quality feed. In my experience free streams are not worth the effort of finding them.

    Everything is expensive in Scandanavia though.

    I was over in Finland last December and the average of price of a Playstation 3 game was about £80 :shock:. A pint was about £10 too!

    Jeez finding more than two or three people who want to watch boxing these days is almost impossible.
