    Is there anyone at SBW that Juanma wouldn't give an almighty beating to though? I'm assuming his chin is alright and that one big counter that lands flush on him won't close the show. If that is the case then he'd basically beat the living daylights out of everyone in the division. I like Vasquez and rate him highly but he hasn't got anything like the right style to get past Lopez. Same goes for Marquez too. Maybe Cabellero because he is such a big gangly freak? Still don't really see him derailing the Juanma express.

    Anyway, back to the main point, Sky were terrible. ITV ktfo Sky

    sports network need to rethink there approach to promoting fights, last night was interesting for me co of my ties with ***an and ellis but from a neutral pov it was awful and a huge waste of money, froch pascal was what boxing all about. The london show was a waste of time. I will not buy a sn ppv again.

    I think ITV should be celebrated too for putting on the show for us boxing fans.

    warren has become a joke.

    usually i'd pay for a ppv.

    and especially one like last night.

    where ya getting a british leg with some big name british fighters and a big american fight.

    but warren can go whistle with his shite matchmaking. :hi:

    Only bought the PPV for De la Hoya Pacman, would never have bought it for Khan.

    First class show from Hennessy, except for the God awful singers and why the need for the Jimmy Lennon clone MC. British show, use a British MC.

    Well done ITV even if my Sky plus cut out in the 12th round of the Froch fight!!

    Wish the top 5000 werent with him!Fights like Froch vs Pascal are to few and far between nowadays.It was refreshing to see british involvement in a fight between two boxers who were equally matched with everything to prove and giving it their all.Frank Warren has taken this out of the sport and the more fighters that leave him ,go on their own or join Haye,Hennessey etc the better.
