Thanks mate ;)...and War Abraham

This is not as good as it seems. Abraham-Ward is on SS3 and Hopkins-Pascal is on SS4. This means cable subscribers via. BT Vision can't watch it. fornicating hell, I paid to subscribe to SS through BT Vision for boxing and now they move fights to the channels I can't get, get a grip Sky you wankers!

That is a bit pants.

I'd get rid of BT vision, the picture is woeful.

Always crystal clear on mine. Problem is that Virgin don't do my area and being in a listed building in Central London I can't just stick a satellite dish on the roof.

Is there any way to see Ward v Abraham live? (legally of course).

It's fine on my tv and I'm paying significantly less than I'd be paying for proper sky...

It's good and bad over Ward-Abraham for me. Good in that we won't have to pay for it on Primetime like other Super Six fights, bad in that we probably won't get the Showtime feed, which Primetime used for S6 fights not including Carl Froch. I know that the S6 has all but fallen apart now, but I do believe that for any tournament there should be standardisation of broadcast, it just adds to 'the feel'. Sky know this, they do it with Prizefighter. But it's good that they're bringing us these fights and at a sensible hour for a delayed broadcast.

I am guessing this is on german tv live. i will get up and hope to see a knockout.

Where's the fight taking place? Wards back garden again?

More or less in his back yard - California

Not quite, it's in his neighbour's back garden in Southern California.

Apparently he and his team were actually complaining about having to make the 5-hour drive! Can't blame them I guess. I mean, it's not as if Abraham's had to fly half way round the world for it, is it?

I really would like to see him knocked unconscious by Abraham. It's so sick how every fighter except him has had to travel to foreign countries to take fights on opponents home turf except for him. I'd just give anything to see a Wayne Alexander v Takaloo style pole axing of Andre Ward at some point.

I have a disliking for ward and would love nothing more than abraham to knock him out, ward on points i'm picking, abraham by ko i'm hoping. Would be nice if there was some way to watch it live, not sure i can stay off boxrec and avoid spoilers for 8 + hrs.

What time is Ward vs Abraham on in the UK?

Agree, I would love to see Abraham knocked unconscious by King A.

I just can't see Abraham knocking himself out. That would be stupid
