    Just read some people were complaining about them paying 15€ for a ppv and I thought you should know how expensive it is here

    Horribly unfair to you Danes. I pay my showtime fees on 10 dollars a month just to watch boxing, their movie selection normally sucks. I watch maybe 3-4 movies a year on showtime. But thats nearly a year of showtime fees for me.

    Unfugginbelieveable. That is some major bs. I live in the Dominican Republic. I get Kessler-Ward for free with my cable package. Most people down here can't afford to watch the fight. I totally understand how u people in Denmark feel. Last nite my cable went out. Happens a lot here especially if u don't have a satellite, like I don't. Makes life hell for us major boxing fans. I feel your sympathy.

    Well we get most of the other major fights for free also. Pacqiuao vs Hatton, Jones vs. Calzaghe etc. And all the fights without Kessler in the Super Six is also for free on public cable.

    You guys should know how much we pay for television licens and tv packages. The licens just for having a television is 2400 kroner a year (480 dollars) and then you have a small, medium and the big package with most channels. The cost of the big one is 370 kroner a month (74 dollars) (888 dollars a year).

    Man I get angry myself when I add all this up :lol:

    Well, I guess this makes it up. You guys get all the big fights for free. lol.

    That is crazy though, I don't know if Kessler's last fight was on PPV, but I heard that over 65% of the country watched that fight.
