    That last frame reminds me that I miss Ian Darke's boxing commentary.

    We also need Paul Dempsey's unique very particular set of skills to be guiding us through these troubled times.

    Haha got to say Eubank was very unique. Man's a fighter and whatever worked for him worked.

    Imagine his manager negotiating that deal. My client will require a leather wing backed chair, velvet curtains, and an array of potted plants. Oh, and 5 million quid.

    I was just going to say the same thing.

    I really liked Paul Dempsey and Ian Darke. I miss that time.

    The exchanges between those two I would take any day over the typical try-hards like Tony (or is it Anthony?) Bellew etc.

    Joyce can't. He's the slowest thing in boxing. He takes about 3 weeks to bring that right hand through.
