He looks a bit like Yuriorkis Gamboa. No doubt the similarities end there.

brilliant, typical internet thinking


You might as well beat up old women, dressed as Father Christmas for the next month, for all the effect this laughable petition has on anything.


They'll have a bloody petition against 3rd world debt next!!!!

And I wouldn't be signing it, FCUK 'EM :lol: :lol: :lol:

Anyway back on topic, the best protest anyone can make over this fight is by not paying for it especially when it's on for free a couple of days later. If you pay for it then you are a mug and have no right to complain about it, I could buy 7 pints of Stella for 15 quid so that is what I'll be doing and then I'll watch the free rerun a couple of days later.

:D

Sky are playing the Rags to riches story with this colombian dude, riccardo torres is mentioned as a sparring partner etc etc...what a bag of shit, has khan made any comments on this whole shambles yet? He is probably not allowed to speak in case he makes a boo boo.

Oh what a joy to see typical internet thinking!!

yes Sky should come out and say "This fight is a joke! the oponent is expected to lie down within 2 minutes! but buy the PPV anyway"

Then Khan chips in

"Yes its a pathetic fight... i wont be bothering to train properly, because my oponent sure isnt up to much, anyway, buy the PPV, it will be great!"

This internet forum thinking can also do wonders for the world of advertising too

"The new Nissan Micra, pooly put together by Mexicans earning a $ a day! rainwater makes it catch fire"



and so on

Whats up your snot?

Are we not entitled to call it what is anymore or do we have to accept that sky are doing good business pulling the wool over peoples eyes by charging for and the hyping of this mismatch!!

If you dont like what people are saying in this thread then kindly do one, i dont think your attitude will be missed.

By the way, got on to Sky this morning, after looking at their pitiful boxing line up, and tried to cancel sky sports 1.
They then offered my all 4 sports channels at 1/2 price for 3 months - which I took em up on, just because I want to watch the US Open to be honest.
I'll probably cancel after 1 month, unless the line up looks any better.

You should have perserved, I once got any package I want for 10% of the price for 6months.

And I'm not one of those twats always bragging about how they've forced Murdoch to drive round and paint my spare room to get me to resign.

I just was determined to drop it, being the mug I am, and in light of England's performance versus NI, i insisted on JUST the family package, despite the brilliance of their offer!!!!!!!

You know, I had the impression I could have driven a harder bargain...but I was in a weakened state, having spoken to about 4 different operators, each asking the same questions, then waiting in a 20 minute queue.
I'm going to cancel Sky completely in next month or so, so will let you know how low the bastards go.

i voted maybe

these boards either going to be dead as fook a week on sunday or full of bullshitters cause 90% of you will tune in whether it be at home /at a mates/in the pub, all of which contribute unless you have a dodgy cable box (which is what i will watch it on if i decide i want to leave the HQ)

What happens if i'm in the pub(which happens to be the norm at weekend) and it's on? I didn't buy it so therefore I'm not contributing as it would still be on even if I weren't there.

you should boycott the pub, cause this is a complete rip off

i just find it funny how 'everyone' is bitchin about it being on PPV, so what, if you dont want to pay dont its that simple

also, there is ZERO Pro British Boxing that isnt free

Sky Sports is £8 a month, Setanta £12 a month

i only watch the people i know box these days (losing interest) so at the minute paying for Khan's fights on PPV is the cheapest option to me

i await the silence on Sunday the 7th

The stream is usually decent. I'm on a subscription. And I would be spending more than £15 for the PPV as I don't have Sky. I don't watch much TV.

What are you on about you muppet? People come on here to have a rant because they are pissed off and rightly so. £15 on top of the already premium fee is an absolute insult, and sadly will only turn people against Khan.

As for people voting "No" and then still tuning in, speak for yourself yeah?

To those who know - make sure you provide the link to download the fight the next day!

I will wait for the link instead of watching a start stop stream personally!
