Yep, it has became a joke how many fights they make you pay for now.
James DeGale v George Groves for example, first big fight for these guys and Sky decide to charge you £15 or whatever it is, I always watch PPV fights on a stream on the Internet anyway.
But yeah hope they show most fights on channel 5 from now on.

"We have a situation where we have options, but his next fight is going to be on Five," said Hennessy.
"I've noticed non-boxing people talking about this fight, talking about Tyson Fury. He's been getting recognised in the street by non-boxing people.
"If we have about five or six outings on terrestrial TV he's going to be a household name for sure."

It was so cheap and cringeworthy last night, and Tyson Fury is like the Boxing equivalent of the Waterboy

Dunno how they went all 12 rounds. They looked bolloxed
Saw the BB advert during the wrestling match thing afterwards :D

I don't rate Tyson Fury, he won't go any further than the British Title IMO.
And I can safely say Klitschko would kill him, last night was more evidence that he would, Fury toiled at times and needs to spend more time in the gym shaping up if he wants to go far... he looks like a giant, not a boxer.
