    This weekend 5 channels/broadcasters have shown boxing in the UK.

    BBC
    Channel 5
    BoxNation
    SKY
    Primetime

    We have never had it so good. Makes me privileged to be alive.

    All of these broadcasters deserve a big THANK YOU.

    Please express you appreciation.

    The ironic thing is that Fury with his caveman style of boxing is exactly what the casuals want to see, hell they'll even think this Pajkic bloke is top class and not just some other caveman bum.

    Amature boxing without on screen scoring sucks.
    Channel 5 is a joke of a promotional channel.
    Sky Sports was weak this weekend.
    BoxNation was weak this weekend.
    Pacquiao is fighting on the worst channel ever.

    We have had it SOOOO much better in recient weeks.
