Bounce TV?

I guess my $220 a month Xfinity cable bill isn't enough to have this station included to watch the fights tonight.

That's garbage... I was thinking the same thing earlier today. After a bit of digging, I found it on one of the super high, more obscure channel ranges. Does Comcast offer Bounce TV? Or it does and your plan doesn't include it?

It's one of those Digital Antenna channels. I don't have it either.

I don't know why they even put Boxing on that channel to be honest, I'll try to watch the Warren vs ZZ fight but I could care less about the Main Event as ShoBox will be on by then anyway.

I have 1300 channels. That's not one of them. Why would they put it on a station no one has? It's a good fight put it on Spike or something.

Call and have them add that package then call back tomorrow and cancel it... If they are like the company I work for, any additional services will not be charged to the customer if cancelled within the first 30 days of having it, But not sure how Comcast works.

TV's not worth even half that a month.

The 220 is for the cable and the internet. And the x-1 DVR where you can record like 800 things at once. Plus 2 other boxes. And watch it anywhere anytime on your phone. It does have its perks. I make like 100K a year but it still perturbs me to spend over 2 bills for something and still be missing friggin channels.

What speeds are you getting for internet?

Warren looking extremely sharp in the early going here...

BTW, who is the color commentator tonight? He sounds familiar.

Warren has a lot of talent, but he's one of those guys who doesn't seem to make full use of it. He'll have success, then switch off for far too long....

Not watching him now, though I know he's scored some KDs.

Spot on man... However, Warren seems to have caught a second wind here in the 8th.

Caught a stream online. ZZ has controlled the fight since the brutal first round but highly doubt he wins this decision in Warren's backyard.

I don't know the exact figure but blazing fast.

I've given ZZ 8 of the 11 rounds so far. 10-7 first round and venue of this fight is the only drama to this decision. If it's anywhere but Ohio it's a clear win for ZZ.

ZZ wins a decision.

It's good to see foreigners be able to get decisions in the States when deserved because we rarely see it the other way around.

Seems like Warren did it again, huh? He just doesn't work hard enough at this level...

He fights like a mini Broner. Lazy and not enough work rate.

Yep. Warren does just enough to win or lose by the skin of his teeth every time.

He never worked hard enough. Which is why in 3 Olympics he never medaled. He's a choke artist. When it matters most he under delivers.

Warren is blessed with immense physical gifts. But he coasts. It's something some of these guys from the hood just can't grow out of. You have to want it. You have to put in those extra hard yards to get into the great shape required to be as active in the ring as you need to be. Maybe as he gets a little older he'll learn that but I wouldn't count on it. For every Terence Crawford who lives and breathes it and does everything right in preparation - there are 100 Ruashee Warrens that come along who just wanna skate by.

I'm always envious of you guys when I see you complain about a $20 ppv. My cable/internet is $270 a month, before my $60 UFC and anything else. I even have to stream undercards y'all get free under our $70 ppv's or pay channel fights.

I don't buy any PPVs ever. I stream them all direct to the TV. Sure the picture isn't as good but free is free.

Didn't catch Warren and not to make excuses for him, but his prime was in the amateur ranks.

I feel like the UFC usually delivers a product worth paying for. Though I'm definitely streaming that garbage tomorrow.

This is how I feel with UFC cards. They are good enough to warrant me dishing out the money for a flawless production I can enjoy watching on my 55' while sitting on my couch. And even though tomorrow's card isn't the most spectacular, I will still be purchasing it.
