On Live now, let the circus begin!

Perhaps you remember the Zale/Graziano fights.
Three of the toughest I've ever seen.

Broadcast live may not include internet. The Real Audio pipe says they cannot transmit the fight over THE INTERNET.

thanks for the world cup sked! I'm still not used to events being on only from 2:00am EST to 7:00am EST. I thought the USA game was 4 hours from now, not 28.

This is Tyson's final shot at saving the rest of his life, his place in history... if he's not doing well early, he'll pull another stunt and sabotage the match to guarantee another fight payday, and that's why I could not pay the $50. It's too strong a possibility.

I believe the restrictions on the BBC are limited to the streaming of the audio over the internet.

I think the contract BBC obtained to broadcast the fight explicitly said "except on the Internet"...../sigh

So...are any pay-per-viewers planning to do punch-by-punch posting? please :)

Well, whoever got the pay per view should now be prepared to be Howard Cossell, and comment on the fight!

Ah well...I'll bet 10-1 anyway that we will get better commentary on this thread than we would by listening via the 'net ..
