    A production team that gives the best and always looks for new things.
    Commentators that have been doing it for years.
    Expert analysts who have been there and done it themselves.
    A history in the sport.
    And so on...

    Achilles, I wouldn't say the "doing it for years" thing is that big a coup. It's probably the biggest weakness of the presentation, IMO. They need new faces.

    How do you get the job for Sky sitting ringside pressing a button everytime someone throws a punch?

    I wouldnt mind that number.

    It was a rebuttal to if you scratch beneath the surface. I think there needs to be a changing of the guard but the fact is there is depth in their presentation from top to bottom and they are the best in the game.

    Johnny and Adam tickle my ribs on Ringside as they look like 2 raging homos discussing boxing but Ringside blows any other boxing show out of the water for presentation, production, segments etc

    Nick Halling had a ****in nightmare last night, on the Frampton-Hughes fight. He went on and on and on about Frampton having to look impressive, and where was the power and...blah blah - ****in ejit.

    Watt, rightly said to Halling, that Frampton hadnt connected on the jawline (yet), hence that was the important detail...

    Anyone find it odd that BoxNation and Sky have their own special sets of fanboys? They're TV channels, get a grip.

    Very strange.

    Then again, the internet is the home of partisan idiots. We're all guilty of it!
