    The standard of boxing on Sky and BT has been pony nearly every month for 12 months with the odd good fight developing - say 10% of fights max.

    Too many feather fisted repetitive non exciting pony such as Edwards last night and complete mismatches such as all televised Matchroom fights last night. Even Ritson was a mismatch last night and the only excitement we get is if one of the home fighters gets found out fighting pony.

    Both are producing turd month after month and even most of the PPVs are turd

    I fancy the TBA arranged to be honest.

    I expect the line 'it was all about the experience of fighting abroad for the 1st time as a professional under the lights at the iconic Maddison Square Gardens' more than the opponent, but dont worry about the opponents as Bautsi is going right to the top.

    Glad I recorded it, fast forward played a key role - enjoyed the Maxwell fight - Okolie’s fight was intriguing at best - apart from that, not good. For the record - took about 2 hours to watch 8 hours of boxing

    Spot on. It’s a british boxing problem and when we’re hailing area level fights as superb Saturday fight nights we’re just asking for more and more of it.

    Dave Allen headlining the O2 - cannot argue with your logic.

    Okolie looked pretty horrible to me, clumsy slapper that will be exposed badly by Gassiev or Briedis. Gorman did not impress me either. It's okay being a fat fook if you do the business like Kownacki, otherwise you are just a fat lad.

    Bloody hell, Ribbleton is dog rough. My 15 year old brother played football there yesterday, the whole team got kicked to ****! Right nasty little *******s they were. Great to watch.

    On record to say there hasn't been a particularly good card yet this year.

    Will you at least give arsenal sane? Come on now you don’t even play him that much.

    You jest, but Allen is probably only a couple of wins away (say Browne and Price) from being fed to Whyte as a PPV headline main event at the end of the year.

    Imagine Smith salivating now. ‘It’s a real life Rocky story.’

    If both win, would not be surprised if Eh Day gives the PPV mugths Dave Allen v Dave Price PPV at £19.99

    Few look decent when facing Kevin Johnson.
