BoxRec

Just wondering if anybody knows of somewhere in this area that will show the boxing. I know most places with a TV have Sky, but a lot of them are reluctant to show anything that isn't football, rugby, tennis, darts or golf. If anybody knows of somewhere it would be a big help. I've bought somewhere there recently so am in the process of getting my Sky set up.

I live there for 25 years.

You should try the Pride of Pimlico on Tachbrook Street, junction with Moreton Street.

They will have it on. Ask for the governor, Tim Keenan, or his wife Mary who looks like a bulldog chewing a wasp. Or Larry behind the bar, who only talks about Arsenal.

They will certainly have it on, and the Haye fight tomorrow.

Brilliant, thanks for that. You still living there? Just gave them a call and they said they'd have it on the big screen, but that they'll be having a DJ there tonight... Might see you there if you're around.

Just back now. An odd place but got the job done and good to see them showing the fight on the big screen. Nice pints. They had a DJ there playing loud rave music while people played pool and watched the fight. Have not seen that before in a pub of its type, especially considering there weren't many there but no problem with that if that's what they want to do. Would go back again but luckily I have the Setanta viewing card now for tomorrows fights, but it's yet to work for me.

Ive known Geoge for years, played snooker with him a lot. He is a nice old boy, but he could peel an orange in his pocket.

The pubs mentioned above, Morpeth is a Youngs pub with no TV, the slug has changed to the Page, again no telly. The Swan is OK, no tramps, but again no telly.

If you want to watch boxing you have got The Pride of Pimlico or The Lord High Admiral on Vauxhall Bridge Road. The Coach and Horses on Willow Place is also good for sport.

yes, i remember the lord high admiral, me and the army lads used to watch the football there, man utd v arsenal..utd scored, up i went and i was the only one in the pub standing......ah well, cockney bstards !!
