UFC 280

Hi, I didn't see a thread on this yet strangely,

Does anyone know, can you buy the BT Sport Box Office via Sky TV, if you don't have the BT Sport channel in your Sky subscription?

It looks like you can, but after a lot of searching, I'm not 100% sure. Not looking for a dodgy stream, happy to pay for it, just don't want to pay the PPV, then find out I'd also need a BT Sports monthly subscription on top of that as well?

And on the fight, looks like a great card, I'm predicting, Yan, TJ and Do Bronx for the wins, but it could also be the complete opposite of that on the night so should be a good one!!

Thanks!

without the BT sub already there is no way to legally buy the ppv in ireland as far as im aware.

MrStuffins · 20-10-2022 01:17PM

What a card! I'm absolutely buzzing for this one.

Fun fights other on the premlims: Al Capone v No Time. Love this fight! Should be a lot of fun. Belal v Brady too, although I know a few people don't like Muhammed's style.

Co-Main is a banger! Say what you want about Aljo, but he's the legit champion now. Sure, he got the belt in a dodgy way but he proved himself. Him v TJ should be a banger. I'm not a big Aljo fan after this shananegans but my God I hope he smashes TJ. Surely TJ is one of the least likeable charasters in the sport?

The Main Event, what a fight! Really pulling for Do Bronx here. He's the legit champ and one of the most exciting guys in the sport. Just hoping Makhachev doesn't get the chance to wet-blanket his way to victory.

K, after finding nothing after searching a lot online, I rang Sky this morning, and was told the PPV event is standalone and "you definitely can order UFC280 without having the BT Sport's channel in your TV package".

Fingers crossed it works so, but the lady on the phone was 100% sure it will work!

barryribs · 21-10-2022 10:46AM

Im going with Oliveira, Dillashaw, Yan and Muhammad to win by TKO due to boredom

Naked Lepper · 21-10-2022 12:56PM

any way to watch this if you are Virgin Media customer?

i also have now tv sports and sports extra

happy to pay for the PPV but not sure how.

anyone with info or advice pls reply or PM

Used to be able to watch on some dutch channel when stuck but doesnt seem possible anymore

walshb · 22-10-2022 02:17PM

Why is this BT box office? Usually on BT sports..I can’t recall last time a card was PPV. Maybe Poirier-McGregor 2?

Patsy167 · 22-10-2022 02:41PM

My picks will be:

Makhachev - his wrestling is too good. Win by submission.

Peter Yan - #2 ranked fighter vs #13 - an easy stoppage win for Yan here. Not seeing what the hype with O'Malley is.

Sterling - TJ Dillashaw has been out of the game too long.

Matheusz Gamrot - not a strong pick. Would be equally happy to see Dariush win.

Chookagien - win by decision

And 30 euro on top of your sub is taking the piss

PatrickDoherty · 22-10-2022 07:12PM

Can see Yan stopping O Malley tonight by kicking his legs off him.

Dariush Gamrot is a great fight Im surprised how big underdog Beniel is.

Porthallian · 22-10-2022 07:43PM

Brady vs Muhammad should have been on the main card over the Fiorot fight.

I see he was 2/1 only seeing it now, bit suprised at that too. Those were great odds.

mailburner · 22-10-2022 08:23PM

I'm finding it so hard to make a case for o malley, surely Yan will run through him?

He'll get the winner of aljo tj should he somehow beat yan

0ph0rce0 · 22-10-2022 08:27PM

hasbulla? **** off with that shite. It's not funny anymore

And I can't wait to see that stupid **** chimbob **** lip carpet mat get knocked the **** out soon.

I'm holding nothing back.

0ph0rce0 · 22-10-2022 08:43PM

I retract. What a fight.

ctrl-alt-delete · 22-10-2022 08:47PM

That was a great fight.

lertsnim · 22-10-2022 08:48PM

Yan won that.

dashoonage · 22-10-2022 08:48PM

Well..... ****....

Eoinbmw · 22-10-2022 08:49PM

Dirty!

Eoinbmw · 22-10-2022 08:50PM

Omalley does not even think he feckin won

rob316 · 22-10-2022 08:51PM

Wow I don't know about that, great fight thought razor close. Sugar Sean the real deal though

eagle eye · 22-10-2022 08:51PM

It's a disgraceful decision. Yeah, O'Malley is in shock that he got it.

I'm fairness O'Malley isn't celebrating it. I don't think he's at all happy about how it went.

mailburner · 22-10-2022 08:55PM

was sure Yan won that third round but it was close, o malley surprised me.

He'll learn a ton from that, not sure he's ready for a five round fight either.

Aljo will tie him up in knots if they meet, reckon he could take TJ though

It's a pretty good win for the division, Dana will be very happy 🤣

Shite indeed this hasbulla mallarkey, it was funny for a week or two about two or three years back

Agree with you regarding Chimaev also, he's exciting to watch yet unbearable to listen to and I can't wait to see him humbled.

0ph0rce0 · 22-10-2022 08:57PM

here comes the snake.

Titzon Toast · 22-10-2022 08:58PM

Sean even seemed stunned at that decision.

Great fight though.

stuchyg · 22-10-2022 08:59PM

He must know how hated he is with that "who doesn't like a comeback story" line

chin nuts · 22-10-2022 09:03PM

That's a disgrace of a decision. Yan had all the ground time in rounds 1 and 2 as well. If he wasn't Russian maybe he wins.

Mehaffey1 · 22-10-2022 09:06PM

There's poor Piotr Yan losing another fight that he won. If it wasn't for the combination of the blood from O Malley's knee and the Suga Sean hype train then I think it was his.

Really think T.J wins this against Sterling.

SM01 · 22-10-2022 09:06PM

That was an awful decision. Yan clearly won that. Sean and his corner didn't believe it was anything but a Yan win
