    Bunce was once a great man to listen to, until he turned into an english boxing fanboy in recent times.

    "Froch deserved to beat Direll cos Froch was the aggressor although he didnt land much"
    "Haye deserved to beat Valuev cos Valuev was the aggressor but didnt land much"

    Bunce used to be better than that, but was bitten by the nationalistic bug, became a hypocrite & is no better nowadays than a Glen McCrory or a Barry McGuigan, just another talking head...

    & its a sad loss to the sport, cos like I said at the beginning, Bunce was a cool voice to listen to not so long ago before he became an old patriot...

    Wouldnt surprise me If I heard that 'Buncey' was having a rant about Don Cockell being cheated in his book, its the way the big man is headed nowadays:deal

    This idea that I'm a nationalistic nut is simple to explain.
    I work on British and Irish radio stations and for British and Irish TV and for British and Irish papers -
    I have to cater to a mass audience - I sell George Hillyard and not Kermit Cintron. Cintron's people never listen, never buy papers and never email my shows!
    I don't have the excessive and often damaging luxury of an internet writer - I have to justify a name and work to a few hundred words (see Booth in today's Independent).
    I have still delivered plenty of interviews with non-Brits/Irish in the last few years.
    By the way, the boxing writers who went with Cockell on the boat to San Francisco half fancied him to win! Also, the ref on the night did let Marciano get away with cheating!

    Adios and thanks.

    Hey Dunky, Buncey has nothing on you when it comes to blind nationalistic rhetoric.

    PS. Leave the Clones Cyclone out of this:good
