    C'mon, when was the last time RTL said no to K2? They are not like HBO.

    Why would he need to end those fights sooner than he did? I'm a boxing fan... I would much rather get to watch a good bit of a fight before it ends. I get pretty disappointed when I sit down to watch a fight and it's over in the blink of an eye. Watching Klitschko is GREAT from a true boxing fans perspective. You get to see him put on a great display. He controls the tempo, and pace of the fight. He controls the distance with his jab and footwork. He completely takes his opponents will away with his jab and few power punches mixed in early on in the fight. Then, we get to see him slowly take his opponents heart along with it as he heats up with more and more power shots, all the while still showing great control of the distance, and pace of the fight. Along with his tremendous defense that leaves us shocked when we actually see a punch land on him. Then, after we get to see him put on a clinic, he finishes them off. I can't understand how a dominant victory could be any more fun to watch from a boxing fans perspective. Of course it's fun to see someone get blitzed out of the ring in 30 seconds, but it kind of leaves a lot to be desired too. I like to watch the rounds go by... listen to the corner between rounds... see everything unfold.

    I watched Wlads last fight against whats his name on RTL

    My god it's awfully annoying, Adverts every few minutes,


    Even when they were nose to nose in the ring and about to go back to their corners they threw in an advert, every round 2 adverts

    no corner action,

    It sucked

    agree with that about sky, but theres not as much adverts though

    RTL is the worst


    then again they do broadcast their satelite across Europe for free, so even if for example , Haye v Wlad was PPV in the UK on SKY

    You can still actually watch it for free in the UK on RTL- 100 % legal

    Sky have such a stranglehold on the UK market that most people doesnt realise it :good

    If that was true why would Wlad even try for a knock out?

    I know now why Gaye run all night against Wladimir KlitschKO. He was helping KlitschKOs making money. :D
