    I'm not sure how it came across on tv, but i was in the arena and enjoyed it. Atmosphere for the williams smith fight was quality

    Not really bothered by the production or anything to be honest. I enjoyed the card. Main event was poor but I was happy with it on paper so won't moan too much. Didn't think as a whole it was bad at all. Woodall was doing as good as Carl Froch impression as possible though

    Apart from the Smith v Williams fight which was a good scrap but ended with a sour taste, the rest of the show/card was very poor. Give me Sky shows over BT/Boxnation every time.

    Very disappointing. Expected a lot more from the production / commentary - and the fights were not as good as hoped either. Too many 'late subs' in mis-matches.

    Unless/until they get Tyson Fury back they'll be struggling behind sky. Even with him thats just one fighter.

    Agreed, absolutely ridiculous putting Adams on after.

    I'm not sure what you're talking about to be honest. There was one late substitute on the card and that was Dubois opponent.

    On paper, smith/williams flanagan/petrov catterall/gethin Kelly/Godding were all really competitive fights.

    His roster of fighters is far too shallow now, I think BT will end up very disappointed by the deal.

    also Zelfa barrett and JJ Metcalf ended up with a jouneyman instead of Mark thompson which would have been a good scrap

    Wasn't very impressed but at least an improvement over BN. The Warrington card will be a better yardstick.

    Still, Warren actually needs some big names. He put in a good bid for Parker/Fury but really should have bid more. Get Andy Lee or someone over.

    Agreed. Warren needs to secure big fights for Saunders and Flanagan soon, like he has done for Fury.

    Too long in between fights tho. Plus the interviews were too long. After adams won i went to the toilet, went to the bar and came back. She was still getting interviewed.!
