    Congrats to all on the show. Not as many big fighters on as recent weeks but still top notch. Was great to see Micky Cantwell and Tony Dodson talk so enthuseastically about the sport as punters as well as fighters.

    I hadn't realised that Yanks used the word 'bollocks' so good to hear Mike Marley use the expression and talk that for 5 minutes.

    It's great I think to have a journalist on a sports show rather than the nodding dogs you get esp at football and even worse in athletics where all they do is say how brave the Brit is and don't even bother telling you who's winning half the time.

    Buncey talks in big headlines all right but it does give colour and even my missus watches the show and she hasn't watched a fight since the McClellan Benn fight.

    I have to say; I much prefer to see that Welsh bloke presenting the show and am slightly hoping that he might take over full time. He's far more natural and professional than Kerr and that other bloke and seems to have a better chemistry with Buncey as well (at least on screen). Plus, he has sensational taste in shoes.

    I thought Rhodri was a big loss to Sky Sports News - Andy Kerr you can take or leave, I like him actually, but see your point.

    He's miles better than Dempsey, but still way more robotic than Kerr

    Kerr comes across as a boxing fan, he doesn't have to have encyclopedic knowledge, just his enthusiasm is enough.

    Kerr is more 'off the cuff' which is appealing.

    Either a natural thing, or something to suit Buncey.

    LOL at you and Bunce 'the security at the Hyland bills was self regulating' :deal
    Good luck Tony. As a scouser now living in London I'll try to round some pals up to go to this.
