    I'd try and start and argument here, but I actually find it hilarious that you think that. So I'd rather leave you keep believing in your fairy tales.

    Don't worry folks, the beast will reveal itself to you shortly on Boxnation. You'll be willing to do anything to get a job at the channel when you see me, I will of course give you the opportunity to be involved if you REALLY REALLY REALLY want the job.

    You will of course have to be inducted into the kiss my ass club first though.....if you really really want it, you'll do anything for it. :hey

    Stopped watching a while ago. Very boring now. Stop the awful phone ins and focus on a couple of GOOD guests about who they are and current topics with a perhaps one focus point. Ringside have got it right.

    :good

    People mock Ringside, but it has had years to polish it's product and it has. I like it.

    I watch Bunce's boxing hour, but it essentially feels like a radio show on TV.

    Essentially no thought to the visual content.

    A real shame, but surely it will get better.

    Won't it?

    Stopped watching it I'm afraid.

    Far too dull and basic.
     
  6. For a show that has a budget of about £12 a week I think it does ok.

    Bunce is great when he has somebody implementing a degree of control over him.

    At Box Nation he is left to do whatever he wants and the only thing he has to do is talk up W*rrens bull****.

    As boxing fans, we've never had it so good.
    Too much moaning, considering the budget, its a decent show

    I thought the cowboy hat thing was funny.

    It's been stale since not long after it started on BN really. I gave up at christmas when those 90 minute shows felt like about three days and haven't missed it at all since.

    It was okay in the setanta days but even at the end there Bunce was becoming a charicature and the show was suffering.

    The low rent budget, the crappy set (even Cage fighter looks the business next to this), the tacky canned laughter, the silly stunts like the hat,gives the whole show a minority sport feel. Add Bunces obnoxious and by now unbearable histrinonics and inability to keep his mouth shut while others are talking and ive long long switched of

    I think Ive seen it twice and found it a bit boring, if they released it as a Podcast I'd probably listen to it on the way to work, but its hardly a feast for the eyes
