No problem, think this is the best episode so far mainly because its relevant as we approach the fight, rather than looking back as the last couple have.
Yeah, I do love the way this program covers all aspects of before and after the fight, though, and I think that's what sets it apart from 24/7 (old debate now, I know). If a boxset is released after the tourney I will happily buy all of these episodes as they are brilliant and I haven't found a single one disappointing on any level. Another fantastic episode: Shaw continues to be a twat, Mick continues to sit in silence, I continue to dislike motormouth Dirrell the more I see him, Abraham continues to be entertaining TV, and all the bits inbetween were brilliant as well. Roll on the next episode:happy:good.
I agree i love the coverage i just wish we didn't have to wait until months and months after the fight to see the post-fight footage, when we've all forgotten about it and are ready for the next stage. Maybe a couple of weeks after at most would be ideal. But beggars can't be choosers, on the whole i'm loving the 360 series and you're right it definitely shits on 24/7. I tried to give Mick the benefit of the doubt after the trailer as it was only 4 minutes long, i thought he must make a contribution during the whole episode surely!! But no, he really doesn't have anything to say does he Dirrell is a bit of a twat but you can't argue with the boys ten pin bowling ability. And Abraham, well he just reminds me of Patrick Bateman in American Psycho. He's an absolute killer with genuine moments of comedy.
I find the streaming an absolute nightmare. My connection's decent, but it doesn't put the video in cache like YouTube does, so it's taken about an hour to watch 15 minutes. My connection's decent enough to handle live streaming video but it's utterly soul-destroying right now. If they put it on YouTube at the same time, I'd love them forever.
its the exact same for me mate^^ , does my head in i leave it for a couple of hours till it's properly fully done then watch it without it pausing every 20 seconds.
That was the original venue before Dirrell's injury mate. Its now at the Joe Louis Arena, Detroit. Usually holds between 16 and 20,000, think they're still working on scaling the seating down for this fight though. It'll be more than 2000 though thats for sure!
This is why I thought the fight would be in Germany, as Dirrel has no fans and would of not won over anymore after the Froch fight. I suppose all the super six fighters should get a home fight though. Cheers for the info.
Direll threw a wobbler after the Froch fight and said he won't fight anymore fight's abroad if made to he wouldn't continue in the comp so they bowed to his pressure and also King Arthur wants to fight in America...because he loves America...he loves the fans...and wants to become star in America. Arthur really does love America.
