We ordered the replay - Got the blue screen of death. Couldn't get through to a real person when rang the helpline. Tried to order it to watch on the website - Couldn't see how to register. Poor show. No wonder so many people just watch illegal streams...
I'm sure they might. But no more than going up to a bunch of FamilyRadio whackos and telling them they are insane might lead to them saying you have one. Kerr was good. Their technical ****up's aside the majority of my gloating is aimed directly at the fact they thought in error that they could match or exceed their Mccloskey numbers. In doing this exercise they have completely vindicated SKY's opinion that it didn't warrant being PPV. That said, Khan put on such a display that he has for certain upped his marketability. He still isn't early-hours-PPV material unless he's fighting Mayweather but there is certainly the opportunity to do split atlantic cards.
I generally enjoyed the coverage. They've made massive improvements since first starting. The best part was the complete lack of ads, which really kill the tension when watching a live fight. Three hours of coverage for £15 is alright by me. McCullough was dismal though. When he wasn't begging for a fight he was trying to pimp out his teenage daughter.
Pretty terrible bitterness in the opening post here. Commentary wise, I think Benny Riccardo and Colonel Bob as a combo are the best. I really like Bernstein and Farhood too but Colonel Bob is the man, nobody beats him. Hopefully, next time Primetime can put the 2 of them together
Ok, so what fight were we hearing whilst they were showing another one? It all seemed a bit screwed up to me...
Finding this thread quite amusing to be honest, we beat the McCloskey numbers so completely wrong there! Also there were no technical issues, the only people who had problems with this fight did not have their viewing card in the box when ordering and hence missed their signal. Also anyone on here saying they had issues - there was a help thread here on the night and I said on numerous occaions if you had any issue PM me and I would get someone to call. I thought our broadcast was fantastic and the whole team did a great job. Another fantastic night of boxing on Primetime!
I thought It was OK but Primetime should fire Duke McKenzie ASAP he is still awful, Come on Primetime does he have some dirt is he blackmailing you or something why else would you hire that muppet.
Smith - get a grip. Also, who was the commentator that kept on with the "Peter Quillin" all the time. Whoever that was I have to thank them for the name "Peter Quillin" going around in my head for the remainder of the weekend.

To be fair i thought it wasn't bad coverage. Kind of reminded me of the Eubank Benn fights of yesteryear where there was just one presenter and a pundit just talking boxing without all the fancy computer screen and fake hype. I think the commentators aren't the best but i've heard worse. Between Russell Jnr and Khans performance well worth the £15. Final word on Russell Jnr. What a fighter its been a long time since i've seen a young fighter put his combinations together so well and be a master of judging distance. For me this kid will go far a future p4p great.
It's as if Duke doesn't even follow boxing sometimes. (Not that I'd expect him to know all the ins and outs of Kid Chocolate's career.) Who kept on about him, just kept repeating the name over and over again. He was definately american whoever he was?
Benny Ricardo was pretty poor too, though it was amusing when he thought Duke had become an MD. No problems with Primetime though. Never had any issues with ordering boxing or Strikeforce MMA events.
