Ok, now im going to run through a couple of things about downloading. A couple of people have been asking so i thought id make a sticky and we can all post tips and stuff.

**DOWNLOADING FIGHTS**

Megaupload

1. Open the link: MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service
2. In the top right hand corner, type out the letters and click download.
3. Wait for 25/45 seconds and then click on 'free download'.
4. Choose where you want the file to go, then press save

Rapidshare

1. Open the link: RapidShare: 1-Click Webhosting
2. Unless you have a premium account, click on free download.
3. Wait for the download ticket to countdown, i think it starts at 2.5 minutes.
4. Copy the letters and click download, im not sure which option is the best i think there all pretty much the same.
5. Choose where you want the file to go, then press save.

**WATCHING THE FIGHTS**

The player i use for most of the files is VLC, here's the link:

VLC Media Player - Reviews and free VLC Media Player downloads at Download.com

You need to download the file and install VLC. All file types play pretty much, although i find if you have .wmv file i suggest using Windows Media Player as its better quality. If you have a .VOB file in the VLC, be sure to turn interlace off else the quality won't be as good.

JOINING SEPERATE FILES

To do this, you need to download HJSplit, here's the link:

File Splitters, freeware and multi-platform: HJSplit

Simply download, open hjsplit.exe and click 'join'. Make sure part 1 and 2 are in the same folder, that way they'll join them automatically.

Yeah, I'm having a problem with downloading the second part of a couple of fights. For example, I downloaded Cotto-Urkal Part 1 and it went fine, but then when I downloaded part 2 it doesn't play. Same thing happened with Mayweather-Hatton. I don't know why. Some files play with Windown Media Player, and others with VCL. The second part to these fights won't play with any of them.

Any suggestions?

This should help here RingDoctor. Megaupload only allows 500MB per file, so when the file is greater it is split into two using this. Unfortunately, the second part won't work unless you rejoin them after downloading both. Let me know if you have anymore problems.
