    I'd imagine it would be in a couple of hours mate. Annoying but I think it'll be a while until the main event happens.

    eubank is now pay per view lol. so watch his defences for his entire career and youll by forking out alot, and really hes not worth watching. id pay for his fight against groves or smith thats about it, only domestic clashes in smw are worth paying for. and thats if the top 4 fight each other.

    Parker getting tagged with hard left hooks from a 9-6 fighter. What a red hot prospect.

    I'd like to add, nobody isn't thinking about the future generations of boxing fans who might not have parents who are willing to pay for boxing.

    I am old enough to remember watching Benn Sr/Eubank Sr fights on ITV free to air, THE BIG FIGHT LIVE, those fights cemented me as a boxing fan, they were fights that made me buy tickets to events in the future.

    It's short term thinking on a few different levels.

    That's an industry wide issue and I agree, but a single broadcaster won't be competitive if they aren't attracting fighters and the big money ppv pay days will be how they get these fighters.

    People seem to have accepted AJ as a 20 pound + ppv attraction, he can get away with fighting anyone now, this is only a 10er

    Parker winning the fight, but not impressing. Getting tagged way too much, he appears to be one of those fighters who try to appear slick, skilled, whatever you want to call it. But it's just not there.

    Parker is improving through the fight and is clearly on top now, but yeah not an impressive performance. Getting hit a lot more than he would've wanted to.

    Zach Parker getting tagged a fair bit! As for Ritson, wow he looks a quality fighter. You can tell he is a classy operator, he just did everything so naturally and everything flowed and he didn't punch himself out when the finish didn't come - very impressive.

    I would watch Crolla vs Burns over Eubank even if it was free. Unlike you I'm not some hero worshipping fanboy.

    I'm in two minds over whether I want Eubank to win tonight. On the one hand I hope Yildirim wins because Eubank just isn't very good, but on the other a Groves vs Eubank fight would be a big spectable and that would be the end of Eubank's title aspirations.

    A win win either way.
