When it moved from £1.99 to £7.99 I did keep it a few months.

But then they had they dry Jan/Feb period.

Could spend that £16 on a few take aways.
16 quid on a few takeaways? Where do you live? Bangladesh?
I'd struggle to get a takeaway for one with that :lol:
I live in Milton Keynes so a bag of chips for that.

I meant for myself.

A nice chicken burger meal is £5 in Manchester.

Yep. Bellew’s sandwiched in between her and Laura Woods. He’s not going to be rushing home to his wife and kids.

Just caught the Cully KO. Peach of a shot. The last few times I’ve seen him I’ve been really impressed. How far do people think he can go?

She's nice-looking for sure.
Looks more like the presenter than the fighter.

Scotney up next, I got Scotney...

Lots of boxes to be ticked yet, but far.
Natural power and length, minimum Brit/Euro level, but I'm optimistic, so I'll go...
(just about) PPV star. :yay:

I refuse to pay for DAZN.

Thank you to those who are putting the graft in.
It's on Sky Sports NZ Spud. No idea why or how that is.

Cully has punch power and star power too, talks really well so could be big time in the near future.

Is Andy Lee a republican? Very noticeable is isn't wearing a poppy.

Didn't know whether to focus on Nicholson's legs or teeth! Lee couldn't think straight when she sat next to him

Look at that front row.

Barry McGuigan. Empty seats. Eddie Hearn. Empty seats. An elderly couple who look like theyve rocked up at the boxing instead of Les Mis due to a booking error.

2-0 Scotney, she's a level above.

Good cornerwork from SMG imo. "you can see her coming a mile off, just stay busy and don't let her nick rounds and you got this" :salut:

I’ve taken this fight as a ‘let my wife watch what she wants for a bit during dinner’ so I get a pass for the rest of the show. Thanks for the update 👍

Youve made a good call Maverick. Very poor quality stuff. Putting the football back on.

It's like 5-2 or 6-1 :maybe:
Scotney is good, the Spaniard is tough and game, but not very good.

I can’t quite see the danger from the old Spaniard that Barry Jones is speaking of, That right hand is pretty ineffective no matter how she throws it.

Can't have helped DAZN with SKY switching the Liverpool v Leeds game to Saturday night, I'm sure if they had kept the price to 2 quid they would have had more subscribers and more income than putting up to 8 and everyone cancelling

9-1 Scotney for me.
Romero and her corner seem to think she's winning ? :maybe:
She was competitive, but not good enough.

Scotney was impressive - good engine, skills and some reasonable power - Romero was tough but little else.

It was never going to stay at £1.99. I just wish there were a few more U.K. shows for my £7.99 and they were more picky with their U.K. PPVs.

Judges had it closer - 96.67 - 93.33 UD.

Typical women's fight - getting better, not a bad scrap, but low on power and 2 mins making a KO almost impossible.

A prospect against a tough journeyman in a "good learning fight" NOT a European title fight in any way, shape or form.
Still, not a bad watch nonetheless.
