If Gervonta Davis and one or 2 other legit match ups are on the ppv I'll probably buy it depending on streams that night and how bad they are.

I'll watch the way I've watched all my sport, including PPVs for the last two years. Crystal clear, reliable, HD streams for a moderate sum, less than the equivalent of one month's subscription to Sky.

No, no home cities. Floyd had it in contract I believe

Shoulda done one in Cork then, All the bags of sandwiches, Flasks and Anoraks would have scared the shite out of old malteser head

They dont have to sell the fight here so there's no need to have a press conference in Dublin,.

Walshb, get some fresh air mate.

I'm willing to pay but only if they fix exact time for 10:00 Vegas time which is 6 here....One thing about boxing fights/MMA fights is not having an exact time and kind of just getting up early and waiting with eyes half open....Having a fixed time of 10:00 Vegas time would be grand!

As far as im aware their is a fixed time for boxing, defo one for Pac man V mayweather.

I'll watch the way I watch all my big fights too. No kodi, subscriptions or PPV needed. Nothing dodgy in the slightest, and zero cost.
I'll be in the local watching it on the big screen.

mma clinching is more technical and physical. he wont have to worry about getting kneed in the face, slashed by elbows, or taken down to the canvas

Im not gonna say Conor has a better clinch game but you are very quick to dismiss him

I am not dismissing him. I am dismissing that guy's matter of fact claim that the non pro boxer will be the better clincher than the career veteran boxer in the clinch in a boxing ring. Just so obvious to me that a matter of fact claim like that is BS.

You've never watched a fight/sports in a pub? You're missing out imo. The crowd adds an element that you don't get at home imo.
Luckily my local has beer and pringles too.

If I was in your timezone, I would hands down be in the pub to watch this too! Actually, what time is 10pm PST where you are?

I'd be the complete opposite. All that shouting and waving and hollering can take away a lot of the event for true fans....

That's possibly the most condescending nonsense you've posted to date. Which is saying something. By your ridiculous logic, people who go to ANY boxing/UFC/football matches/etc in person aren't "true fans". :rolleyes:

There are advantages to watching at home in silence. But for me, being there live in person, or watching in a venue with athmosphere trumps that. You can always rewatch to dissect the details, but you can't ever re-create the athmosphere.
