    I was just wondering if Aussies can get most fights on TV, such as HBO fights, Showtime, etc.?

    PPV?

    Yeah we get most of the good HBO cards on our Main Event PPV channel.
    The odd other cards we get on a few weeks delay shown on Fox Sports, a regular pay tv channel.

    Plus we get all ESPN Friday Night Fights....on 1 week delay.

    We get all the big International and big name Australian fights as a PPV event, ESPN fight nights and classic fights/knock outs are on cable, but the worst thing mate, is all our TV's are in black & white only

    I love Australia, wouldn't be anywhere else. Its so relaxed, hardly any crime, strong economy, plenty of opportunities. Plus the country itself has a lot of natural beauty, especially around the coastlines.

    I got the chance to check out a few places when i was living in UK and no word of a lie Australia shits all over anywhere in that continent.

    Im not being bias either im being a realist.

    I was living in England and the only reason i could go to a decent doctor was through me playing pro footy.Had plenty of trouble with my girl getting a doctor/dentist and all that crap.

    They have one of?(maybe the biggest)economy in the world but thats because the *******s dont upgrade anything other then soccer stadiums and prettymuch just sit on there cash.

    The living conditions over there are horrible.

    I went to Ireland,Scotland,Wales,France,Netherlands and Bulgaria and though they were all great in their own way they still pretty much sucked balls compared to what we have to offer in oz.

    My girl came over to England a few months after me and the first comment she recieved from a Londoner was''why the **** are you here for''lol.I always thought that sumed up things.

    One thing though....Go to Bulgaria its cheap as **** and the people are very friendly eventhough they at times are desperate as **** for you to give them money.

    Got myself pair of latest Nike shox and Addidas superstars for like 25pounds(bout 70dollars).

    I quess it would be prettymuch the same in some of the Asian countries.

    Actually the Health care system in the UK is much cheaper (free) and better (in some states) then the healthcare system in Australia. My girlfriend who is English is amazed she has to pay to see the doctor or the specialist in Oz, We even pay $200 a month to be in a healthcare system and we still get ripped off. She lived in England her whole life and never paid for any medical service. it's called the NHS. and even i had free medical care when i had an ear infection whilst living there.

    In saying that, she loves living over here and will probably for the rest of her life. Thing is Australia is a great place to live, but Australians seem very biased how good it really is. For example - NSW public transport and Hospital system is an absolute disgrace.
