Thank you for your email about boxing.
Unfortunately, Sky has no plans to broadcast the Mayweather versus Judah boxing match on the 8th April 2006, however, your interest has been noted and passed to Sky Sports for their information.
Thank you for taking the time to contact us and for your interest in Sky.

Lee Haskins v Zolile Mbityi for the Commonwealth Flyweight Title, Simone Maludrottu v Damaen and Kelly for the European Bantanweight Title are two of the events scheduled for broadcast in April on Sky.

That's tough on Maludrottu, having to fight Damaen
and Kelly on one night. Must be the rules in this new division of bantanweight.
What do I want to watch? I would have thought that was clear (hint, not endless golf, 'wrestling' and Armenian moto-cross).

Free downloads. Yes Bitlord will do it.
Have a look on that site, there are so many fights on there. I got Brewster v Liyakovich from there before knowing the result.

It depends. But the most recent fights have plenty of seeders. Check on there on sunday for instance, Mayweather v Judah will be there with plenty of seeders. I have downloaded fights in about 20 minutes at times.

Sadly just moved house, no no broadband for at least 10 days....

Just a thought but cancel your Sky subscription - £30-40 and get a broadband connection instead £15-30 and never miss a fight....

I'm getting broadband anyway, it's just that there's no way of getting it quickly. I get broadband as part of my homechoice package.

Stream TV and worldboxing are definitely the way forward.

It's great helping each other with all of this lads, but public posts on forums such as this one about torrents and TV streaming sites are what gets them shut down. Would be best if administrators could delete each of the posts referencing the sites and this post also.

Sorry didn't realise that. If anyone can pm me then.

The torrent site has it now sticky topic on the current scene, so we can talk about it here. Might have something to do with the site being legal in the Netherlands.
