    Who you think takes Frampton v Quigg Buncey?


    Are you allowed an opinion?

    By the way...did SKY set a record for a post-fight interview after the Eagle and Quigley fight? I think Adam spoke to five people! That's quality and I'm not joking.

    Adios

    I thought it was great. They think about production and try to improve on it. Skys production of sport is the best in the country.

    It's all window dressing. Scratch the surface and there is very little underneath.

    Really enjoyed the coverage last night and wouldn't change much of what they did to be honest. 100 times better than Boxnation crap

    Nick Halling is an annoying twat. Totally clueless.

    I think they should vary up the charts, Pie Graphs one week maybe a couple of Venn diagrams

    Draw in the maths crowd

    :lol:

    They were a bit pointless - I'm sick of punchstats. They don't really tell the story of the fight.

    Nice not to be in the 1920s with charlie chaplin music in the background or buncey going on about the good old days with the cockney rejects who fought in the abas 50 years ago, at least sky dont slag off boxnation like franks fat mate with that massive bowling ball on his shoulders.

    Im siding with the piechart on this one.

    I loved the boomerang graph stats to be honest. It was hilarious :lol:

    I quite like Nick Halling doing the commentary though. Him being so bad distracts me from Jim Watt :happy

    The graph was the funniest thing - it told the viewer nothing at all about the Quigley fight. "As you can see, they've been throwing punches."

    I laughed and laughed at some of them. The show was better without that crap.

    It does not bother me at all. I like Boxnation's raw and gritty style.
