Good point, and for a mug like me that paid for Saturday night, this is my reason for shelling out - it was just easier to click a couple of buttons on my remote and get a clear picture on my TV rather than looking for a credible feed that won't infect my computer with a load of viruses.

I know that someone's going to come on and tell me that it's very easy to find these PPVs on the net and that I can hook it up to my TV etc. I realise that, but maybe I'm just too lazy to arse around doing so!

Mate, if you've got the money and £20 won't set you back much, then why not?

Or at least even now, say 4 mates come together and put in £5 each..

Still cheaper than going out to watch it..

Yeah exactly. I might not agree with all these PPVs but I love boxing and £20 isn't going to break the bank.
You pay your money, you take your choice

Last ppv I paid for, well chipped in to was AJ Vlad and I didn’t mind as that was worthy of it, but the stuff that is PPV now just takes the absolute piss. £20 for what was essentially a decent gatekeeper vs a CW having his second HW pro outing with a poo undercard, ffs. £20 for that on top of the monthly subscription, you’re having a bubble!

You're right, there was no way that Saturday night should have been anywhere near a PPV. Ironic that we were treated to a much better card for free later on Channel 5!
