This broadcasting of fights a week after the event is beginning to irritate Goz.

I didn't mind it once in a while so long as we got a reasonable amount of live fights but for fights from the US not involving a Brit or Mike Tyson (or possibly Klitschko or DLH) it's become the norm. Not impressed, I almost can't give a toss a week later and now with the power of the net will have read numerous reports and quite probably have seen the fight after a week.

What's wrong with the Sunday morning? Probably more expensive, I'd love to know how much more though.

I'm babbling now, what was my point? Oh yes, fornicate off Sky!

Sky are taking the piss with these cutbacks, boxing is the main reason I have Sky Tv.

I know the loss of my custom will not affect them but I'm sure I wont be on my own.

Are they getting complacent or just more greedy?

Just think, those heroes at Sky could've saved their money on a Barrera mismatch, and used it to pay a little more to show Pacman/Morales next day - so their paying customers could actualy watch it without knowing the result. Not rocket science is it.

We get a Barrera sparring session, and they pass on Tito/Mayorga - just hopeless.

Sky, at times need to look these two words up in the dictionary

Quality

Quantity.

I'll never forgive them for that Tito - Mayorga one. It's predictable that people nowadays dismiss Mayorga as a mere welter (hmm... wasn't this said about Trinidad after Hopkins dismantled him? :D :lol: ) but I remember how live that match was. The whole Saturday I was buzzing. Let down big time.

I think I'll switch over to Sky Movies and watch a hollywood film followed by a horror. Same type of effect that fight card will have on me. :x
