    I would pay £3 for a US Card direct download the next morning in decent quality. probs wouldnt pay for old fights often.

    That would interest me much more than paying per fight for old fights.

    One thing I would suggest to any promotion stable thinking of doing this, is a quick turnaround time. I.e very soon after the fight has aired live.

    Bar an absolute screamer, I wouldn't see the point of paying for a fight that I've already had a chance to watch/already know the result of.

    Agreed. If it was a fight televised anywhere chances are I can get it for free.

    Sounds good.

    That would be good. I would but it if it was small hall shows not televised anywhere, I would buy it then.

    If it was some small hall domestic shows that were not televised, then yeah I would buy them.

    agreed and the technology is there to do it. The card from this saturday of;

    Juilio Cesar Chavez vs John Duddy
    Marco Antinio Barrera vs Adalition De Jesus
    Raul Martinez vs Gabriel Elizondo

    £1.50 per fight of £3 for the card. Have it ready to download from 9am on a sunday monring UK time, I would buy it and I don't think it would cost much for Top Rank to do. I could be a suggestion I know myself and Dftaylor are putting together a plan to contact US promoters about getting a legal way of watching there fights in this country.

    I think that ic Hatton put his shows on iTunes they would be good value...:yep

    I have only been to 1 and watched a few on TV, they are good value shows, with interviews, old fights and decent music in between contests...:yep

    I think that they could be a real force...:good
