    This is a show I never got into at all, despite giving most of them a go over the years. It all just seems a bit contrived even compared to press conferences.

    Sky released one for Crews-Dezurn vs Marshall tonight; unless Marshall finds a personality is there any point in it? Will listening to Marshall being quite nice to an opponent make any more people watch?

    The kick off between Whyte and Chisora was quite exciting at the time, but then the ruddy security got in the way. Would have been great to have seen Johnny Nelson take one from a proper heavyweight in brawl that followed.

    It peaked with Froch-Groves. Never going to top that.

    "What you doing?"

    With the right combination it can be fantastic but there have been some really boring and pointless ones over the years

    I was daft to watch tonight's new one - 20 minutes I won't get back. And some frigging singing thrown in.

    Seen the preview of the Marshall one and that’s enough for me.

    I do remember and thought it was going to happen, but Nelson backed out and then Huck lost his next fight and didn’t beat his defence record. Nelson should have backed himself and fought him.

    The Super middleweight one was a good watch, RJJ Calzaghe Richie Woodhall Chris Eubank Senior and a very entertaining Steve Collins.
    How times have changed from when fighters fought.

    Just watched it, like I do every Gloves are Off…wish I hadn’t tbh, 22mins I’ll never get back. Marshall really has nothing to offer by way of trash talk.

    Didn’t even know 1 was being released until I saw it pop up on my YT recommended.

    The pull about, 'we can all pull about a little pull and a push' this will never be topped for me.

    That was really moving when Crews-Dezurn spoke about her mother
