Anybody else disgusted by the way Setanta only showed three rounds of the Witter fight in the two replay showings ?

Really annoyed as on the live broadcast the PPV channel didn't kick into round three!

Why not show the full fight in the replay ???

Well I got the 2am broadcast, i.e live and that was all they showed. as far as I know it wasn't shown in it's entirity at all on NTL.

Setanta played the complete fight (for the UK only) first then the full HBO broadcast which only showed the end of the Witter fight.

The replays were just the HBO broadcast again. So if like me you only put on Setanta at 1am, by which time the fight was in the 4th round, there was no 2nd chance to catch the first 3.
:x

Been said alot of times already, you wouldn't have caught the begining even if you had it on Setanta at 12:30 like I did.

Geez when will everyone stop moaning and face facts that it was not Setanta's fault...

Not their fault that the Witter fight started early.... Not their fault HBO only showed 3 rounds of the Witter fight, that had nothing to do with Setanta

The early start caught everyone on the hop. That's fair enough - the pisser is they never repeated it.

Setanta coverage came on during the first round of the Witter fight. I think it is harsh to criticise the Setanta coverage too much - they are only starting out doing it and at least we got to see the fights live!

Telewest customers only got it from round 4 onwards.

Setanta actually went to the fight before they planned (about 12.45) they dont tell the fighters when they should come out.. I was lucky I tuned in just when the fight appeared in the middle of the first round.

so probably my only chance of getting a copy won't be a full one ?
not sure what the difference is between all the channels you guys are talking about.

my best chance would be a partially missed 1st round and then onward ?

thanks
