i pay for shy sports but to be honest id be paying for it anyway eeven if they stopped boxing coverage , any and all ppvs and ocasionly but a mag if i spot one in the shop so not alot at all realy
I used to subscribe to BN but don't anymore... That is just my personal preferance and by no means knocking BN...:yep I just don't think it is the magazine was in times go by...:yep
crikey..... went to vegas for hatton Pacquiao total=£2000 went manchester twice and liverpool once.... Ticket =£200 (roughly) Travel - £100 (cheap trains) Programmes + beer ????????? Been London Twice costing around £150 each time i also got sky just for boxing and PPV, various dvd's, boxing news susscription and some memorbilia. not sure how much i spent on these tho
sky sports,if boxing went off,id cancel. BN now and again,local shows now and again,some am shows. but personally id rather watch it on tv at home,cheaper beer,no dickheads thinking there rocky,and im guaranteed a shag:hey,no hassle ****ing about trying to trap off,just get her pissed and bingo,if that dont work,id just KO the biatch,and bingo,could do any orifice i like then:tdh
If I've got it, I'll spend it. BN, PPV's, big shows, small shows,gym fees,training gear,dentistry :!: If I was minted I'd be in Vegas evey other month:yep Was hoping to save 15 quid this wknd and watch the fight at widdy's, but after reading of his idea of entertainment on fight night,I think I'll keep my orifices right here at home thanks:barf:barf ****in deviant:nono
I agree....That would be ace, if I won the lottery my job would be travelling the world watching boxing...:good Viva Las Vegas...:deal
Where can you get one of those? I subscribe to BN, used to get it from the newsagents every week then found out it would be quite a bit cheaper if I subscribed Used to buy career sets and that but now just buy blank disks, download and burn. Don't buy every PPV, only the really big ones. Would have gone to Haye-Ruiz if not for people bailing out :twisted:. Bought a couple of pieces of memorabilia this year which cost at most about £20. Buy a boxing book every now and then. Not a lot really compared to most of you lot.
I used to spend quite a lot although i've cut back now. I have a large collection of boxing DVD's, books and other sweet science related stuff. Most of the chedder i spent on boxing was going to shows, but i haven't attended a card for a while especially overseas (the last one was Winky/Hopkins) Mitchell/Katsidis will be my first of the year.
Over a year I probably spend more participating rather than watching tbh. I just spent about 60 quid on dvds, going mitchell-katsidis and that's it I think. I watch FFN on sky but I'd have those channels regardless or I stream/download fights. Was debating whether to decorate my room with some memorabilia, but decided against it. There isn't much I can afford atm though.
considering I make very little money as I only work the school holidays and I spend all of it on boxing. Dad pays for Sky Sports and Boxing News and Monthly subs. I pay for all the PPV (halfs wie my brother). Blank disks and postage for trading. 4 books a year at about 20 quid each. Boxing DVDs about 300-400 quid, all myself as well.
How much we spend on boxing has nothing to do with the lack of mainstream coverage, there isn't currently a personality in British boxing that transcends the sport and ignites the interest of the casual viewer, the closest in British boxing currently are Haye, Khan.
