Hatton fight

Anyone any ideas on best way to watch/listen to boxing this coming weekend. Sky want a massive £14.95 for the privilege. Coverage starts at 11pm on Sky do you know what time actual fight starts.

Thanks

Budget £350 - Spent £64.45 to date

    If you have a movable satellite dish, the fight is free to air on RTL Germany on Astra1 19 degrees East. The frequency is 11.229 Vertical (analogue) or 12.188 Horizontal 27500 3/4 (digital). The commentary will be German, but BBC Radio 5 Live have live commentary, so you can watch the TV and get the commentary from the radio. The real purist may not like the slight lack of synchronisation between the audio and picture ( the radio commentary is normally a second or two ahead), but this can be corrected by feeding the audio into a computer and using time delay audio software such as Babbleback.

    The RTL website indicates that the fight starts at 4 am GMT.
