    Does anyone on UPC have it working?
    Can I just clarify. Everybody who rang UPC didn't get it. Everybody who ordered online did?

    I rang UPC this afternoon to order it and it's working fine for me.

    Guardian site says a scalper offering tickets 6 rows from the back for $1,800. I saw tickets going for €2k at halftime of Brazil Australia outside the Allianz Arena in Munich 2006. I was sure anything under $10k would leave you whistling tonight

    The first show I had on, the reporter was talking to lads that got tickets and mentioned how lucky they were because of only 500 being available.

    1000 tickets is still fairly shocking, considering the venue holds over 15000.

    Initially it was reported 500. Paltry amount alright. Capacity is just over 16000 I believe.

    Nice video Panic E, the hand speed of Mayweather in that fight with Mosley is something else. And I love that vertical jab Manny uses, opens up so many options for him.

    We should defend our way of life to an extent that any attempt on it is crushed, so that any adversary will never make such an attempt in the future.

    Is there any way of ordering/streaming this fight at this late stage?

    Any of you betting on a Floyd KO? Accumulation or 1 shot KO? The right hand to the body could do it for Floyd in one shot.

    Bet you'd have to remortgage the house to afford a pint in that arena tonight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 59,346 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    I have my own party here. It's a one man job. Not as bad as it sounds.

    True that. Neither guy is a slouch. Manny is a lot more technical than people give him credit for
