    Was fantastic to see the fight free to air. I will watch every single fight - if I can - purely in support of the principle.

    I did not think much of the fight though - have not followed much of Klitchko's fights, but could clearly see why Corrie Sanders put him on his arse back in '03. The tiger on the other hand was simply a big ***** copping a pounding.

    Yeah, I did. That is the best news showing live boxing on free to air. I think they European title fights would work well for free to air considering their bouts are in the morning (Aussie time) which wouldn't affect their day time programming and would make more sense than showing them at the pub considering that pubs wouldn't pull a big crowd to watch (unless they stayed out all night). Can't wait for the next time they do this.

    Make sure you call or email if you've not done so already to let them know we want more. I could sure handle watching Arthur Abraham, Felix Sturm etc on a Sunday morn, free to air!

    i got up at half five, saw Banks for the first time, enjoyed main fight but starting to dislike the Dr. seeing euro cards will be great if they stick with this time slot.

    Yeah, got up and watched all the matches. Would love to say the main event was great to watch - but in my opinion it wasn't. Klitchko has to be the most one dimensional world champ in decades - but it's a bloody big, powerful dimension though!!

    Ive always wondered - how do they count viewers for free to air TV when its all just one way traffic?
