HBO will be airing the WBC Welterweight World Championship between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquex live on the 12th of November 2011 from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada, also known as the City of Entertainment. Luckily for those who are unable to attend the match live at the MGM Grand, it is possible to watch the match online, which is great for those who are also not able to watch it on television at home. HBO have a range of applications that allow people to watch the match live on an iPhone, Android phone, laptop or PC.
Watching a live match on such a device does mean that you need a really good internet connection of at least a 2Mb streaming speed, so ensure that there aren’t too many people using the same internet connection, as that will significantly reduce your connection speed. Also make sure that your internet provider doesn’t have a download limit on your connection, and that the download limit is sufficient to watch the full match because you don’t want to be left with a high internet bill or be cut off in the middle of one of the rounds, of course. There are many providers who offer unlimited or very high download limits, so shop around before deciding.
Once you have all of this in place, all you need to do is sit back and relax and bask in the knowledge that you will be able to watch the epic fight, even if your wife tells you that the TV cannot be used for such brutalities and you are banned from going to the pub. Find yourself a nice quiet corner somewhere and switch on your phone or PC and you’re good to go! Enjoy!
If you can watch TV on a phone it’s certainly douable on a computer or notebook. You just need a decent internet connection and the device. Regarding to the boxing fight you can also watch it using the peer to peer system. Pacquiao Marquez live is unfolding this Saturday!
