    You're telling me u'd rather watch Pavlik fight some traxi driver than watch Haye or Khan? The guys the biggest fraud out there.

    But i guess we were spoiled with setanta, i dont think we'l ever get that again.

    Saturday night boxing is a thing of the past. No way will sky run boxing against football first. It would be stupid to do so.

    I hear alot about boxing not getting the viewers or not being cost effective, yet when khan was on ITV at 10pm sometimes against match of the day he regularly got 6million plus viewers, same with froch and even witter. Then u c our Tv licence money bein spent on formula 1... how the hell is that cost effective??? Can understand ITV pullin outta boxin coz they're skint but the honus is on the beeb to get back behind the boxin. The eubank-benn-watson-collins era is considered the golden era of british boxin, why? because u had the mix of great fighters and nationwide exposure to build up fights and superstars.

    I have nothing but good to say about sky, the only broadcaster showing the fight game. They have the dates and hours as a poster has mentioned aboved better than i could. Its down to promoters to give a quality card and value for money not sky

    Hey man whats up with Chess. Chess is the game of kings, to be a grand master at Chess like Kasparov, Karpov and Fischer you have to be able to think at least 20 moves in advance. I have huge respect for Chess .. Take the fishing, cricket, golf and all those shite American sports off .... Has anybody ever tried to watch a full match of Baseball or American Football, oh man how dull ....

    Too right, Chess is the shizz!!! Its a shame the sport where chess and boxing are mixed didnt catch on lol.

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkdOv9DCuUA&feature=related[/ame]

    It just seems like an excuse to beat the crap out of a nerd lol

    Vishi Anand was awesome, he took Kasparov all the way, of course being british, we had our own nearly man, mr Nigel Short, god we really are a nation of losers arent we lol.

    But seriously keep the morning aerobics, love that woman with the oz accent, has me stretching in the morning like nobody's business.
