Access to Boxing Matches

Today I found out that my brother subscribes to ESPN+. It is a streaming service for assorted sports events. He uses it to purchase MMA pay per view fights. Apparently they also cover heavyweight boxing. Today, lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury defended his title.

At first I got confused. I thought the boxing match was a pay per view on ESPN+. I had no interest in that. The pay per view fights sometimes run around $50. My brother found out that the fight was included in his subscription.

So we set up our family room firestick as an authorized device for my brother's ESPN+ subscription. Then we watched the fight. There were a lot of pre-fight shenanigans. Fury is a Brit. But he came out in an Apollo Creed USA outfit.

Fury's challenger was some no-name guy from Germany. Fury jabbed him for the whole first round. Fury did not even sit down on his stool after the round. In round two, Fury went on the offensive and the fight was stopped. Fury won via TKO.

Last time Fury fought local favorite Deonte Wilder, it was a draw. I am ready for the rematch.
