Where do you watch your boxing?

[hurlock]

Post down if you cancelled any or if you re subscribe when you think your getting value for money etc

[Josh1111]

I have sky sports on Virgin, so get BT sports thrown in too.
I watch many sports, Boxing, football, darts, cricket to name a few so i easily justify my fee.
Refuse to subscribe to allegedly as cant stand the man, and i just stream the fights, simple

[Boxerbeetle]

I have the full Sky Sports package & B0xnati0n so pretty much always watch boxing at home, although am currently considering leaving Sky and going over to BT. I'm in the process of swapping my phone over to EE which BT are buying, hopefully they'll do some sort of cross-buy discount so I can justify adding BT Sport as well.

As I'm an expat living in France, I watch it down the pub.
It's not that often that I watch it on French TV.

[Sklar]

It's telling that you've left off 'I buy tickets and watch shows in the flesh'.

I don't have Sky Sports, so crash at somebody's house if I want to watch a Sky Sports fight. I can order the PPVs over the Live Event channel on my Virgin box, so if it's worth paying for, I get it.

Try to avoid being busy if there's boxing on Channel 5, as it's a rare opportunity to watch at home. But am out for the GGG fight. Looking forward to ITV's boxing coverage at the end of the month.

I don't have Allegedly, and have found pubs to watch the odd fight in. Literally nowhere by me has it now, and am considering buying it. Just waiting for a fight I'm bothered about seeing before signing up.

Watched both Klitschko fights on Eurosport, which I have at home. Seen a few other live cards, but they're often crap. I saw a fight live from France once, where the commentators weren't even sure how many rounds there were. Occasionally you get a small hall show with a decent enough main event on their channel, but amongst the worst under cards you'll ever see. One day I drank a few beers and ate a big bag of Kettle Chips watching a show. This one guy on the under card looked like he did the exact same thing almost every night. I'm not skinny by any stretch of the imagination, but this guy was almost Butterbean. And must've been 50 years old if he was a day.

I remeber watching a fight on Eurosport (from over here by the way) where it took the commentators until around round 6 to realise it wasn't the fight they thought it was!

Yeah, I can believe that. You do sometimes get UK leisure center fights on Eurosport. Which I used to quite enjoy when Sky Sports did it, but with Eurosport it can get a bit too cheap and cheerful.

One card I saw, there was a female fight on the undercard. Which lead to my favourite ever line of sport commentary. The guy said; "And after the break, we're switching genders." As if during the commercials they were getting some kind of gender realignment surgery.

[freddydoesdallas]

log into the folks' sky account and watch on the laptop for sky sports fights. Happy to buy quality ppvs and used to have Bnation but moved house last year and have yet to get around to re-subscribing

[ERIC GUY]

I film the boxing, so thats how I see mine..

[hurlock]

Boxer beetle you pay 60-70 a month for the privledge of boxing which is 900 a year once you throw in a couple of ppv's which quite a lot then add boxing news subscription then a few live shows it ain't cheap & I suppose a lot of fans feel short changed

[Boxerbeetle]

900 a year...fvckin hell, better not tell the missus that

[Crazyboy]

I have sky sports through Virgin and get BT sports channels as part of that, I subscribe to B allegedly as well so i'm, pretty much covered. I love football probably more than boxing so with BT thrown in I don't mind paying.

I don't stream anything and go to as many live fights as I can based on finances and how far away they are.

That's it...

Same here. But Boxing over Football for me, Just!

[black panther]

As a purely a boxing fan who has little interest in other sports, Sky Sports offers little value and the only reason I still have it is my brother likes footy.

Allegedly does offer value for me. I mean there are lulls but in the next 4 weeks it's got the following LIVE action :

Ormond vs Flanagan - great 50/50 domestic clash

Fury vs Hammer, Eubank vs Chudinov, Walsh vs Murray - great night of entertainment and three good fights (Eubank fight especially).

Butler vs Tete, Abril vs Matthews and Dickens vs Wale - should be another great night of boxing and especially looking forward to the Matthews fight (come on Derry!).


AMNAT RUENROENG vs ZOU SHIMING This could be a corker. Flyweights may not be up your street but look up Ruenroeng's story and from that alone you'll be interested to see him fight.

All that for a tenner and with GGG vs Golovkin and Frampton vs AValos on terrestrial tv it's a brilliant month of live boxing. On Sky in that time you've got Rose vs Carson Jones (who's coming outo f retirement) and Paul Smith vs Abraham. I probably won't even watch the Rose fight despite having Sky Sports.

[Monte Fisto]

Is there a genuinely good stream that would cover the boxing on sky and allegedly? If so I'd consider cancelling them both.

[seanilius]

I have SkyGo on my Xbox for free as a family member has a subscription. WINNING.

Can't get allegedly on it though. Don't think I would pay for it if I could.

[handsofstone]

I've got all channels that show boxing apart from Premier Sports which hasn't shown a fight in months,its not cheap but its my vice and its better than pissing it away ,I always watch it in my own house as I know I'll get to see it all withoutrt my mates turning off the undercard,I don't even drink these days when I'm watching it as my memories terrible and I was struggling to read my scorecards after the US shows

I prefer going out for a pint on a Sunday watching the football,although the Mondays at work are becoming intolerable with age

But yeah a Saturday night chilling watching boxing,is the reason I work(apart from the kids ;;-) )

I'm similar to you I watch all my boxing at home alone and soberi (can't be watching with my mates they talk through it and stuff!!) I have all channels (although luckily I have Sky through virgin so get ESPN and BT Sport as part of that) and to be honest in the long run it saves me money as gives me an excuse to get home/stay in on a Saturday night rather than being in the pub.

[jonoevansla]

I subscribe to Sky Sports & allegedly. I feel conned every time I see how much Sky charges me, as I only watch the boxing. allegedly on the other hand is great value.

[SteveDow]

I have Virgin so get the full Sky Sports package and BT Sport as part of that. I also subscribe to BN. I get value for money on all I feel as I spend the vast majority of my evenings and weekends watching sport of some nature whether boxing or otherwise and the cost to me of going to the pub to watch events would far outweigh that of having them at home.

[magwitch]

these days all I manage is KOTV weekly, which I red button, and the odd channel 5 show. Pretty poor really, I know. Still make an effort with the BM, and occasionally the BN. Last week (still on sale for another day or 2, BN had a lovely little featurette on guys who beat Mike Tyson, and there's also a nice little piece on the last American to beat Floyd Mayweather. Las Vegan fellow, name escapes me!
Last live show was probably Khan vs. Diaz in Sheffield, so I need to get my act together.

[magwitch]

i fancied Froch v. Groves I, but the promoter told me all 20,000 tickets got sold in ten minutes or something. So I won't be fcking about with that sort of treatment in future.

[billy nelson]

In the corner of the ring lol

[IRLangmaid25]

For me, I get my Boxing via Boxing Tonight which I have on series link via BT Sport as we have it home, plus I have Friday Night Fights on Series link as well on ESPN. Plus anything on Eurosport and any Sky Box Office PPV. Plus I pick up anything on Youtube and Daily Motion as well.
