    I know this is 6 weeks or so away still but..

    I really want to be able to view Pacquiao V Mayweather fight in my own home but it sticks in my craw to have to fork over a fortune for the privilage..

    I am not a huge TV fan - I watch some sport and like the odd film but if I didn't get to see the TV on a night then it would not cost me a thought. And with it coming into the period of more daylight in the evenings then I'll be spending even less time in the house when I come home from my mainly office/ car based job. But Freeview does the job for me.

    My father in particular is a huge boxing fan and is so frustrated that most of the big boxing event sare pay-per-view. He would LOVE to be told he could watch this one - even if he had to travel up the road to my house to do it. I would set it up in his own house other than the fact that himself and my mam watch even less TV than I do. At least my wife and maybe the kids might use it a bit.

    So after that long winded intro - my question is - is there any way to get access to this fight without spending a fortune on sign up fees and annual subscriptions?

    The event will be PPV I'd say either on Sky Box Office or Boxnation. I can see the problem watching it if you dont have the Sky Box, online is not always reliable even the paid proper streams.
