Getting Mayweather/Alvarez with UPC

MUFC91CS

Anyone know if it is possible to order in the Mayweather fight with UPC. Viewed their home page and there is no information about it.

If you can't, anyone else have any suggestions?

Thanks

I think you can only get it on boxnation which I find ridiculous.

You could stream it but I don't think streams are very reliable.

Best bet is to download it early the next day which is what im gonna do.

Fear thee not..... You can watch it live on 'firstrowsports.eu'

It won't stream live until the actual show starts.

It's 100% free, no messing, no need to get your panties up in a bunch.

Close all the pop up adds (this lasts about 5 mins - Then Bob is your uncle Mick!)

Inbox me if you have any difficulties - I'll send ya a baby steps list of how to get it live.

The quality leaves a lot to be desired tho,
Id rather pay a few quid and watch it in HD.
Ive watched fights on firstrow before and its like looking at two lego men going at it filmed on a old camera phone!

Alas my friend, beggers can't be choosers. I have tried to get Boxnation countless times to no avail... I would happily pay fifty euros a month for the service... It's just not to be though...

Incidentally, before Boxnation went mainstream, it was broadcasting free for about a month (to entice people like me I assume), the picture was perfect, the set up was brilliant, and they were only asking a tenner a month with no contract.... Heaven!

As soon as they rolled it out proper, I was informed they couldn't cover Limerick (even though I had been watching it for ages prior??).

Yet I can still stream it...

Upc get a grip..

ah,sure

It's nonsense isn't it. I know for a fact that BoxNation have been informed about this, don't know why they haven't done anything to rectify it as they're missing out on a lot of money.

People should bombard UPC demanding they get the station in place. I've been hammering them on twitter and even got a few mentions in the paper but nothing's moved yet.

If enough people cause a fuss (and face it, volunteer to pay money for a subscription channel) then things have to change.

Annoy them on @UPCIreland, it's an active account they convey messages to the top. But no chance of getting this fight in...

boxnation isn't available in hd on sky either so the best you'll get is standard quality. I'll be watching the official stream through boxnation and livesports.

Hey guys, anyone know of anywhere in Dublin; Bar/Club that are showing the Mayweather/Alverez fight? Thanks.

I have sky and I'm useless at using it. Is it possible to watch this fight live tonight? Other than subscribing to box nation.? Can I just pay for the viewing?
Thanks
