Haye vs Harrison Sky Box Office HD

So I have a few mates coming round to watch this on Saturday (I know it'll be over in 4 rounds etc etc but I've agreed now) but I'm a bit confused by the box office menu on my sky+ HD box.
I've purchased PPV sports before no problem, but the options I'm presented with this time under Sports on the Box Office menu are:
Haye vs Harrison Live (Sky 3D)
Haye vs Harrison Repeat (SBO)
Haye vs Harrison Repeat (SBO HD)
I'm probably being stupid, but do all these fall under the same payment? I don't have a 3D TV, so don't want to select this if that means it'll only appear on Sky 3D and not the SBO HD channel.
At the same time, although I'm assuming it wouldn't work like this, I don't want to select the repeat on SBO HD and not be able to watch it live! What I want is the live show on SBO HD.
The online instructions on the Sky website for the event don't help much:
I'm a bit loath to call them as I guess they'll try and get me to order it over the phone (and pay the phone booking fee).
Like I say, I'm probably being a bit dim, but if someone could point me in the right direction about which one I should select, I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance

The online instructions on the Sky website for the event don't help much:
Press box office
Select sports and events
Use the arrow buttons to highlight the event
Press select and the buy screen will be displayed
Press select to confirm your order
Enter your pin if prompted
Sky Box Office terms and conditions apply.

Doh; I haven't checked since yesterday evening so I'll have another look when I get home.
Thanks for checking anyway; I guess if the options still aren't there for me I'll just have to do it over the phone to be safe.0 -
Maybe they were still in the process of putting the listings up when you checked last night.Dave. :wave:0

I still had the issue of it only showing 3 listings when I got home.
So, I did what I probably should have done in the first place, turned off the sky box completely, turned it back on, waited a few minutes for the box office listings to re-populate (they all disappeared at first) and they hey presto, all 5 options for Haye vs Harrison appeared and I was able to order the one I wanted (although I think they all come under the same payment as I thought they might).
Audley better last more than 2 rounds that's all I can say

TWO rounds?? The last time I watched Audley Harrison "box", my Granny could have beaten him (and she's 6 feet under) !!0
