Shit hot for the price, the amount of fights you get are unbelievable, decent quality, although it takes about a month to ce through. In fact due to the postal strike he's has to redo some of my mine that were list and I've been waiting nearly two
months. But it's worth the wait and the pries are unbelievable . Don't expect fancy cases, though boxingheaven.com does the ae sets but with packaging. But I'm nit bothered about all that.

Hey fleaman, you said the quality was decent.
Is it better than some of the HD vids that have been coming out
on YT recently?

I got three sets from BoxingHeaven, which do the exact same sets as the place we're talking about here. The prices are the best you'll ever see, but for quality..you'll want to go to Waynebedfre if you ask me. He has an extensive collection of fights, and by the looks of things on youtube, he has like old Benitez fights..in amazing quality. You're paying $40 a disc though...ouch.

It's a British site?

Might be a stupid question, but he does sell overseas right?

Wonderful sets. An improvement over what Paul Hitchings has. I got the same sets from him, but these are much better. Great quality, and the packaging is good. Has the fighters faces on the packaging, the dvds menu are slick. You can't go wrong with 61 fights for 20 quid, let's be honest.

Addie

Does he sell fights on disk too?
or did you mean just go download them off of his youtube page?

I just don't have enough memory on my computer,
that's why I'm thinking of buying dvd's....

Yup, I'm talking to him over email. and he said 1 disc will cost $40 but that he is cheaper than a lot of collectors and all of his customers are happy. Just drop him an email at [Only registered and activated users can see links]. Tell him what you want, and he'll sort it out for you over Paypal.

Not at all, the quality is great for most part. Of course for older fighters you're going to see a bit of a slide...but...there's no catch.

My god, this BoxingHeaven dud has his work cut out...he was saying to me when I bought my sets how much business he gets...you're going to give him a headache.

Damn right.

Same way my father passed down that tradition to me,
I'm gonna do the same for mine.

I'm going to sign them up in gym too,
if nothing else so they can learn to defend themselves.

He gets a LOT of business. I've bought shit loads of career sets off him, and even though there's been a delay on the 7 I ordered recently, he's been very apologetic and helpful.

The quality is in most part pretty good. He himself prides himself on getting the full fights, so I don't know whether he's aware that my Arguello-Marcel is incomplete or whether he himself can't get hold of a full version and just wants to put anything on there just to add a little to the career set.

There is NO catch; just that you'll go back (he says he likes returning customers to be treated well)
