Anyone know if it's possible to record the PPV channel? I may be out having a few shandies on Saturday night.
SKY customers:
"The event will only be available to record if you have purchased via your Sky Set Top Box remote control. If you have purchased via itvboxoffice.com, then you will not be able to record this event but there will be repeats scheduled should you be unable to watch live. "
Virgin Media customers can't record it at all.

It's free here, but too late. I think I'll sleep and watch it next day on tape delay.

Probably at 12 p.m. by Moscow time. As I got it, the schedule of WBSS is always the same in order to fit different time zones and, as I remember, previous fights were at that time.

Based on my last experience of ITV PPV?
Fvck off. Stream it
Did you just get the black screen like so many other people did? ITV are total amateurs.
Yep. load of old bollocks.
I’m still going to try again though! its such a great fight

had to vote no as I only have a freeview box and therefore cant get the ppv's. Would have paid no problem.
Same here. Ridiculous system to be honest, thought they would be able to more than compete with Sky etc if they had the whole country as a market but by excluding us tight people who only have freeview they're being a bit shortsighted.
Same. I don't have the platform to pay, so I will have to stream. But 100% I would pay for it. It's a brilliant fight.
I'm in the same situation. I'd definitely shell out for this.

Just fuckin remembered I can't get this on BT. Will need to buy it online and watch it on iPad or try and get it on Kodi. I've not had much luck with ITB box office thus far so I'm slightly reluctant to shell out when I can potentially get a stream. If I could get it on tv I wouldn't think twice because it's worth the dough....
I've got kids til Monday and my oldest has a PS4 which you can apparently access the fight through? Don't know anything about that or how it works etc... Might drive over and pick it up tomorrow if I can find out how it works...

How is this fight so close together in odds? Usyk boxes Gassiev up surely?

Yeah it’s a good job Putin isn’t a big boxing fan, from Usyk’s POV. You would think he can probably box his way to a 12 round decision here, but it’s going to be close. Great great win by Gassiev last time out, hugely impressive.
I ordered it via itv box office, and my sky box tellls me it is Going To Record, though maybe it will blow a fuse when it tries too...
What time do we think ringwalk will be, around 7 or 8 ?

Gassiev looks like a total beast. His war with Dorticis was Epic.
Seems like a decent bloke too. If he can get inside of Usyk’s jab I feel his bodywork will do real damage and he’ll stop Usyk late on.
Usyk doesn’t look to have the power to trouble Gassiev, so unless he can keep it range he is in for a hard night.
I just hope the styles click. Have a sneaky feeling it might not live up to expectations.

I'm not buying. It's bollocks that it is a PPV fight in the uk.
This is why boxing shoots itself in the foot. The best fight if this year for THE Cruiserweight championship and barely anyone will watch it.
It's on a streaming channel in the US I have not heard of.
Two of them biggest problems in boxing are the best not fighting each other and the access to watching fights.
At least the WBSS is at least dealing at one problem just not the other.

Kids mum is out so can't get over to get it man! I'm gonna put it on Kodi I think. Fingers crossed I can get it. Only other way to get it is to buy it and put on iPad and I don't trust it. Same as yourself, not had a great experience with their box office. Pretty poor!
