    Why do they cut or not show interviews at all?

    To start the interview and cut it midway is ridiculous.

    Sky's coverage is consistently wank. The commentary was atrocious(as usual) and the studio analysis bordered on the ******ed.

    Whats the point of cutting the interview though?

    So we can listen to Dave Darts and the lads talking sh*te for the a few minutes? I'd rather hear from Martinez and Barker.

    Whats the issue with the commentary now? Macklin was good imo - Watt had it a little too close...

    Not for me, Halling was great, I had Martinez more ahead but the three were great. Smith was good in the Lee Vera fight to.

    The only plus was I thought Macklin was pretty good on the mike

    He's pretty knowledgeable and made a few good points but he got too carried away (wasn't the only one) with Barker's performance.

    Ha ha, but time is an issue, you get paid for a slot, yeah they can go over if its live sport but if aerobics Oz style have paid for the 5:30 slot then who are we to argue?

    I thought it was ironic that he was the only non-agenda driven pundit tonight.

    but after rhodes and haye we needed a goodun. Khan and Froch are world class -where's our up and coming strenght/respect - Maklin and Barker. Well done lads. And the bin man earlier on - mixed it proper but hey ho. As the scotsman said - "you cant do that at this level".

    I'll give him the credit that he deserves, and that's for being competitive with Martinez for 10 rounds. I'm not going to start talking like he was winning a great deal of rounds, or ever looked like winning the fight, because he wasn't.

    Was Barker's performance any better than the bin man's? :think

    Like Baker, much better than expected. He did go against Jim when Watt scored a round for Barker. Good to see him not just agreeing with the auld yin
