    ..the fights, the opponents, the presentation, the commentary - literally all were rubbish. Anyone agree?

    I went last night and apart from the williams v smith fight where the atmosphere was great, it was a bore.
    Way too much time between fights.
    Half had left by the time we got to flanaghan then half of them had gone by rd7.
    It was the time between fights that did my head in.
    I was hoping that we were going to get a night of boxing to rival skys but from what ur saying len, they arnt delivering.

    Even Paul Dempsey - who is probably a 'veteran boxing aristocrat' by now - couldn't salvage the fiasco. It was cringeable. Ritchie Woodhall tried to bring some dignity and presence to the farce but it was unsalvagable.

    Prediction will be that in 12 months time Wazza will be dishing out worse shows than this all the time....he's done it with every broadcaster he's had so it won't change

    The presentation not as good as Sky but way above box Nation.

    It's painful watching box Nation from that poxy Studio.

    The main event was pretty bad.

    There was no need for Dempsey and Bunce to be there one would have sufficed, better with ex boxers giving an opinion even Enzo would have been better than Bunce

    I said last week that Boxnation were going to take a major L by putting Flanagan on last and not having Smith-Williams as the main event. I was right. Because Flanagan stunk the joint out and the fans died.

    It was embarrassing they were competing against each other, Dempsey constantly interrupting Bunce.

    I don't like Johnny Nelson, but when Johnny Nelson was replaced as the main presenter on fight nights he doesn't try to one up the presenter like Bunce tried.

    The best part was when Richie Woodhall got told to move to make way for Flanagan then got the Mic snatched off him by frank
