    Im thinking about getting Foxtel soonish. Whats it cost for a decent package with all the sports and some movies? How much are the sub channels with all the fights on?

    I think its a bit different over here to back in the UK. In the Uk the basic package is cheap, but you get **** all good channels. All the decent channels you want are segmented with loads of **** you dont want so you need to buy like 8 blocks of **** channels to get the stuff you want at which point you are paying more for the subscription than you spend on rent.

    Whats the scene here then?

    I get the base package and sports. costs me like $55 a month.

    You can get the movies but **** mate, how much time do you want to spend on your ass watchin tv??

    I find if you get too much to watch you do **** all around the house.

    Do you get much boxing with that, or are there other boxing packages? The movies arent too much of a big thing personally as I dont really watch that much TV but my bird does. Also it saves on renting DVDs that I never remember to take back when I do want to watch something.

    Well if you like watching movies and you do hire them, you would probaly save money getting movies.

    Get sports and you get new boxing/kickboxing and MMA about 5 times a week for a average week.

    I get most of the PPV, its add up mate, but if you can have a few friends to come over and throw in $5 as i do its not too bad :good
