Watched Cardle box the other day and he looked very good. Faces Alexis Vastine for a place in the 1/4.
It says that the coverage is available only in country's which are not broadcasting the event, and Britain isn't. I don't know what's wrong with the site but it only seems to work when it want's to. Watched some of the heavyweight last night, but haven't been able to watch anything today.
The Brit team is weak at the moment. Can you imagine how much coverage this event would have got if it was a bunch of poofs running round a track in lycra? Ban the BBC.
Paddy Barnes was beaten 15-4 by Kenya's Pater Munkai, my mate said it was a joke, the scoring. Well anyway he's been sent home now coz he took his gloves off kicked one of them into the crowd and then swore at them. Thing he gave them the fingers and/or the wanker sign too.
Tony, did you watch the Paddy Barnes fight ? If so was it as bad as my mate was telling me ? He said the scoring was ludicrous (unsuprising really) but i'v heard Barnes went mad, booted his glove into the crowd then started swearing at them
