    Recently it has been announced the fight could be bought in the UK. I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a split feed on the same PPV showing Jermain Taylor take on Arthur Abraham in Berlin?
    Thanks

    Do you think they'll show Taylor-Abraham on the big screen at the Nottingham Arena?

    Hell yeah, why do you think I'm asking. I just found out recently the main event doesn't get underway until 2am.:admin

    Fans shouldn't have to pay for boxing, period. And the more fans submit to this ridiculousness, the more marginalized the sport becomes. Name me another sport that has such disdain for its fans. Hell, even UFC is free on Spike TV and has shows like the Ultimate fighter.

    Thats the way it is now days, you either pay to watch boxing, or just dont watch it. It's your choice. I know what i'd rather do.

    I've been to a couple of these UK 2am starts and its a REAL pain in the arse, esp. if the undercard isn't up to much.

    The first three words in your post are over my head.

    Is *swizz beatz voice* anything like *classy Jimmy Lenon Jr. voice*?

    What?

    Granted, it's airing free here, but I'd buy this if it weren't. How is this a horrible doubleheader for a PPV? It's better than most, actually. :deal

    WHat I don't get it? WHy wouldn't you spend money on either of these fights... I mean they are both quality scraps...Is it on free TV or something...or are you just completely out to lunch?
