Definitely worth the money!! People may have wrote off the fight as a mismatch but in fairness Chisora was a round or to more away from making that fight very interesting! I was wary beforehand but I thought allegedly coverage all week long from their Countdown shows to having Jim Rosenthal fronting the coverage was excellent and they deserve a lot of credit for the quality of the output

£10 a month...£2.50 a week. It's probably the best tenner I spend all month.

Amen to that she was nice to watch but brutal to listen to!!!
Thought the way Sky Sports behaved all week was shambolic as well, to state the fight was a mismatch and circus and giving it about 2mins of a discussion on Ringside even though the mainstream attention and an attendance of over 30k was a joke! They must have short memories hyping up sh*te like Haye v Harrison as an even money match-up on PPV. Not one of their reporters mentioned it on Twitter except 1 who said how it was a joke and how he didn't watch it!! Great Boxing reporter there!! Rant Over!

Impressed with the coverage and fight night output. Good fight too. Didn't think Haye looked great but it was a spectacular finish. Del boy isn't that bad.

Rosenthal a little shaky at times. But the guy doing the interviews was excellent very measured and slick. Beyond the ropes pissed on the stuff they had done before and well worth paying professionals to come in and do it. I also like the fact the 4th part will be aired after the fight thus including stuff from tonight.

They even had a hi-mo camera which gave us some lovely slow mo's. allegedly is improving.

Absolutely. Great value for 10 quid. Good fight, decent coverage, and now I get a load more boxing until the subscription runs out. (and perhaps The Life of Billy Walker again..)

Absolutely no need to pay for this ....lasted longer and slightly better than expected but when all things considered all very predictable. The show was very much a money making machine with IMO far too many casual fans falling for the hype and trash talk .
Looking forward to the real deal later ! Lol

Went to the fight and yes it was worth every penny. Although I won a lot betting on Haye for a 5th round stoppage :yay:

the adrenaline and hype was there. Poor undercard, but if you're talking about subscribing to allegedly; I would argue that it's the best investment for the serious boxing fan

Yes. I have posted on here before that I don't agree with allegedly but caved and subscribed just for this fight. Was gonna go to the pub but couldn't be arsed and that would have cost more than a tenner.

Now got a month to see how good allegedly is, will probably keep it just for the Burns - Mitchell fight (nobody tell my missus)

Yours

I've had the channel for 8 months now, worth every penny! £10.00 per month is great value. Much cheaper than what I was spending on Boxing Monthly and Boxing News each month. Binned both magazines and now get around 5 to 8 live events each month, plus Buncey and plenty of archive action.

Superb!

It was a decent bout; they both wanted to win.

We get a few good match ups for the £10 a month.

Paid 2 x 14.50 to watch it at the cinema. It was kinda worth it. Enjoyed the fight, looked great on the big screen. Atmosphere was a bit lacking, I think people are used to being quiet at the cinema but overall just about worth 30 quid.
