He's not that bad but far from brilliant, and he just called Banks v Walker a "decent fight" :confused:

I'm well pissed off.... I bought this thing had great difficulty cause I planned a weekend with my Mrs and all.... relying on friends to tape it. Find out it is IMPOSSIBLE to sky plus it! Not even for a limited days.

Thats answered if I am getting any of the other shows.

Froch fight might be different for me also, depends on alot of things.....if i am at home then i might get it as its not a middle of the night jobby.....but I've just paid 9.95 to watch a boxing event that I now cannot see.

Why wasn't this declared by primetime BEFORE your purchase it. I know PPVboxing said that you will not be able to record it onto DVD, no problem - you cannot with sky box office although you can watch the "live" broadcast for 10 days after the event.... this is what primetime have done in the past, why now did they change it and not say.

If they allowed that, I wouldn't have a problem ordering Dirrell vs Abraham..... but if you fall asleep you miss it.

worst kept secret in the world it was going to be an amateur effort. Well done everyone for parting with a tenner.

Well I went to France for the rugby this weekend so that would have been exactly what I would have tried to do. Seems ridiculous that you can't Sky plus it. Really can't see myself ever buying an event from Primetime who seem to be doing more harm than good. God I miss Setanta

I hate to view the dodgy online streams but that's exactly what i'm going to do for the Froch fight.
