I think Walsh outpoints him.

No. Think I'll be out in town but will make sure I catch it somewhere, would probably buy it if I was staying in as my internet is so bad that streaming really isn't an option for me.

Re: Are You Buying The Groves-Eubank Jr PPV?
This option is good in theory but every time I do this I get to the pub early for a good viewing position. I watch undercards of generally poor quality but with great sound and video. Then just before the main event dozens of drunks pile in and block everyone's view, and you can't hear any commentary. half of them couldn't care less about the boxing. It's been a nightmare every time and I've tried several places. As this promises to be a decent fight I was going to buy it but am a bit concerned about these problems with blank screens people are talking about
I'll be finding a pub to watch it

I got rid of my phone line last year as I have broadband as fibre to premises and know normally it needs the phone line connected for PPV, do you know if I can bypass that somehow?skanksta wrote: ↑10 Feb 2018, 16:28I've watched every ITV PPV thru' my Sky box (have to register first time) and never had a problem.Boxerbeetle wrote: ↑09 Feb 2018, 15:22 Are you intending to buy the Groves - Eubank PPV? I was originally planning on it, but have heard too many negative stories about people buying an event on ITV Box Office, only to find themselves watching a blank screen. So I’ll likely try to stream it.

I think (and this is not based on fact, but conversations I've had with Sky in the past) if you pay for an event like this in advance via ITV Box Office, you don't need the phone line connected as you give them you viewing card number and Sky then unencrypt the channel.tobyh5 wrote: ↑12 Feb 2018, 03:02I got rid of my phone line last year as I have broadband as fibre to premises and know normally it needs the phone line connected for PPV, do you know if I can bypass that somehow?skanksta wrote: ↑10 Feb 2018, 16:28I've watched every ITV PPV thru' my Sky box (have to register first time) and never had a problem.Boxerbeetle wrote: ↑09 Feb 2018, 15:22 Are you intending to buy the Groves - Eubank PPV?

Re: Are You Buying The Groves-Eubank Jr PPV?
I'll be buying this one yes. Think it could be one of the best British fights we've seen in a long while. Had a bet on Groves as well so will be cheering him on.
Re: Are You Buying The Groves-Eubank Jr PPV?
The undercard isn't great but the main event is more than enough to make me happily part with £16.95. Genuine 50-50 fight and if it's half as good as the two WBSS Cruiserweight semis it will be worth every penny.

The undercard is very good. 3 fights close to 50/50 with the bookies
Re: Are You Buying The Groves-Eubank Jr PPV?
Actually yes, I take that back. Arnfield does represent a genuine test of Langford's response to the Khurtsidze defeat (Tommy has only had a routine 6-round points win over a journeyman since). Walsh and Lowe both hold victories over decent opposition and that is indeed a tough one to call. Not sure about Iqbal-Vallily being 50/50 - the former is coming off of a very good win over Wadi Camacho whereas the only real 'name' on Vallily's record is Mairis Breidis who beat him fairly emphatically as I recall - but there are still enough questions marks against Iqbal to suggest it could be competitive.PredatorHayds wrote: ↑12 Feb 2018, 13:20The undercard is very good. 3 fights close to 50/50 with the bookies

No. I'll watch it on YouTube in the days followingif it's reported as a good contest. I don't feel the need to watch fights live anymore.
Re: Are You Buying The Groves-Eubank Jr PPV?
Yeah its all booked ready.
It helps that my mrs is also a massive boxing fan.
