    right there is what is wrong with boxing. people go to see one fight, you should be paying to watch a FIGHT CARD not a FIGHT.

    You should buy it then after the event phone up asking for refund saying the Pole wasn't undefeated :D

    Hmm I might try that actually :lol:

    If they aren't happy to refund, I'll just threaten to leave. I'm sure they'll happily refund 15 then :D

    :patsch Please don't try and get technical. I don't care that Nathan Cleverly is still fighting. He was advertised to fight Juergen Braehmer. Then it was Tony Bellew. Now he's fighting an unknown and proven to be shite Pole that will probably turn out to fight as static as his nationality sounds. That's 1 out of 2 of an already quite **** pay per view card that isn't happening.. 50%.

    You're kidding, right? They need to refund everybody, put the show on regular Sky Sports, and apologise profusely for making such a **** up of it all.

    Don't forget, it's us, the paying fans that enable Sky Sports to even exist in the first place. They make a lot of money out of us, so please don't be thinking that they're doing us a favour.

    Maybe if enough people got a refund they'd switch it to normal Sky.

    Everyone who's bought it should ring up and get a refund and see if they do, worst outcome is you have to order it again before it starts.

    that is 75% mate.....

    25% of original advertised billing is missing regardless of replacements.

    Or maybe not order it at all? If people boycotted this PPV in enough numbers it might just make the greedy ****ers think twice next time they want charge PPV for a regular Sky Sports Fight Night.

    So would you be happy if you were served a pint and it was only 3/4 full?

    No. 50% of the pint is proper lager or beer. 25% is water and 25% of the glass is empty :good

    Oh and it costs £14.95 :lol:

    personally it's still a cheap night in for me and a chance to watch some boxing. as opposed to 10 pints and a bag of sniff up the pub!
