    I will not be arguing with the Mrs tonight who has first claim on the TV because of the Big Brother final.

    Normally she has to Sky+ any of her programmes from 10.00pm on a Friday, but this week I will give way and Sky+ the boxing and watch it in the morning.

    I agree it isn't great and the early schedule for this year hasn't been very inspiring but to be fair Napa-McDonnell ended up being a very entertaining card so hopefully this one will suprise me. I wish Sky would cut the amount of Matchroom shows they are usually poop cards and instead Sky had a date every month or 2 that was free to any promoter to bid and Sky would choose what was the best potential show, this would give them freedom and allow guys like Hennessy and Hayemaker to make the occasional show.
     
  7. Anyone know where we can watch ESPN FNF now? channel 5 used to show it in the early hours but don't seem to be anymore..

    The main event appears a mismatch, but does McAllister at least possess an exciting style - enough to warrant tuning in? Blowouts can sometimes be entertaining to watch.

    Also, Big Brother's still on??? :blood That show started when I was in junior high (and that's here in the U.S., copied after the then-already successful British show).

    :lol:McAllister is more of a boxer, doesn't have much power.

    This is the last season of Big brother in the UK (thank god)

    its hard to judge mcallisters opponent often these african fighters records arent upto date on boxrec occasionally(and i mean occasionally they turn out to be quiet useful)
