    Would have thought Boxnation/the BBC in some capacity would have been more likely.

    Yeah I believe they are showing them on the internet only though and highlights on Ringside. I might just go down to watch them since they're up here.

    One to watch is Josh Kelly, he was a junior last year but seems to have adjusted to the seniors rather well.

    I heard his fight with Martin Stead was very close but in all fairness Stead has had about 140 bouts, he also beat a kid who was 99 won 88 in the tournament and he beat Sean Moore is a very tough and experienced journeyman in a close fight too. Not an easy run at all and very good going for his first senior season.

    Luke Saunders the boxer from West Ham is one to watch too, he has won 10 national titles as a junior and is now in his first senior season.

    Another one who will be interesting is Jeff Saunders, no relation to Luke but younger brother of Bradley. He has always been a very good boxer but he has never won the ABA's as a senior I believe.

    His win over Sam Bowen was his best result, jack Bateson is the best fighter of the night no doubt
