    You are now in charge of Sky's boxing offering. One of your main priorities is to secure a good broadcast team. Money is not a problem, Who do you hire and why?

    Always like Pail malignaggi on the mic, and also like Ronald McIntish, Barry Jones has grown on me too over the last couple of years.

    Sid Waddell and Paul O'Grady would do better than the current mob

    If David Haye fights on Dave again, the main presenter needs to be Alan Partridge.

    Call me a traditionalist, but I've always been partial to Dave Bontempo on commentary - knowledgeable, can see tactics, doesn't get too emotional. A pro basically, unlike Watt and Halling.

    Pundits - I actually think Bellew is a good pundit. I'd also have Steve Lilis and Charlie Webster because I'm in love with her. Meet me for a straightner should you have a bad word to say about her
