    Kugan is brilliant, never a dull interview. As some other posters have already said james helder deserves massive credit aswell.

    kugan's a top lad, spoke to him at york hall the other week and seemed humble and down to earth

    i could defo see him on ringside or something because he's already very friendly with the whole sky team

    regardless, he will be around for a very long tim

    Yeah Bellew came across as a right arsehole. Maybe some post fight adrenaline, but still

    I've warmed to him over time.
    I did used to wonder why he was given such great access to everyone when he didn't seem to have a clue what he was doing but I like the naturalist style now.

    He could be a good replacement for Adam Smith on ringside , nothing against Adam but just feel the show needs some new faces

    i dunno.....he's not a presenter....presenters need a LOT of training to have a professional manner like they do......kugan i think, repeating myself, would be a superb roving reporter....you know.."we sent kugan out to have a chat with him"....kinda like the segment where johnny nelson went to stuey hall's house....kugan would be made for that.

    When I first realized IFL had become compulsive viewing for me was when they didn't cover the Kovolev/Cleverly fight. Although the fight was obviously interesting in itself anyway, I really missed their coverage before and after the fight. Nobody does it quite the same I think.

    On a side-note, that Welsh guy who has presented for them before a couple of times was pretty good as well. He knew his stuff. Can't remember his name though.

    Always enjoy Kugan's interviews, think he strikes a good balance between banter with the boxers and asking the questions which need to be asked. Respect for James Helder for the job he does as well.

    I really enjoy Kugans interviews and love his banter with Fast Car.Hopefully something good comes out of his IFLTV interviews.
    Matchroom joke about paying for his services but they really should with all the exposure Kugan gives them.:thumbsup
