Willing to pay for Froch-Taylor but...

... the internet broadcast is UK and Ireland only! Therefore a stream or torrent link via PM would be appreciated, if anybody can help.

If Hennessy or whoever is behind this broadcast is reading, why can't your broadcast be watched elsewhere in the world? I realise the US has its own TV broadcast, but if we're not in the US, UK or ROI, then we're being denied a legal means of watching the fight, which I repeat I am willing to pay for!

I wonder if it will buffer Buffer? Mind you its Showtime, so I Imagine all the people will be watching Lennon Jnr. An Island with No Stream, that is what you are Ollie its outrageous it isn't on TV I mean 57 channels and nothing on, money for nothing and your You Tube clips for free.

Lads as has been mentioned it will be available for free on the night , Even if you want to pay for it and cant you can use a free stream you can hardly be blamed as your not "tsking money away from somebody" as some gobshites would try to convince you as you cant pay for it in the first place

Exactly. I am, as it happens, anti-streams/torrents etc and have always been a good little subscriber and PPV purchaser in the UK. However, as you say, I'm not in the UK now and don't have the option to pay for the broadcast even though I'm willing to.

TV is a different matter, of course, but I really don't understand why geographically neutral countries (i.e. those who are not showing the fight) cannot access this content?

So, if anybody knows a link, muchos gracias!

Umm we don't get HBO here! Not HBO Sports anyway. And as Adam says, it's on Showtime anyway, and Truevisions don't usually pick up Showtime cards.

I would actually pay for this if I knew for sure the stream would be good quality.

I don't know for sure, so I'll probably be requiring a link :TU:

For those of us outside the UK the fight will be shown on South African channel SuperSport 5 at 3am UK time.

Most ex pat pubs have the SuperSports channels for the football

Finding staff who know how to work TV has been a problem in the past...



'So there you go, find SuperSports 5 and you will find the fight'

Get in! That's what they have at Chequers isn't it?

I think you and/or me should make a reconnaisance mission there beforehand to check the girls know how to press our buttons.

If one of us gets kidnapped or murdered then i will take full responsibility.

Every time I meet you I take a risk, so I'm not worried any more than usual ;)

It's mad that Thailand is broadcasting Froch-Taylor via a South African channel, but the UK channels won't touch it...

Change your IP Oliver ?

Dont use a proxy server though as it will slow the stream down to zip all.

I would buy it, even if the stream is shit, because I think Carl deserves our support.
Unfortunately you cannot access it from Spain, or the rerun on ITV so I will be staying up late looking for a stream
