    The point about the BBC cannot afford big fights is fair but there is no reason why they cannot show big amateur tournaments and the ABAs.

    Frank is not a happy man today. Costello is talking sense to be honest though, boxing on the BBC doesn't look like it will be coming back.

    Costello comes across as slightly out of touch to me

    I don't agree with it mate and I don't know why they did it but it was the points about tennis events at european level for example not being shown which I thought was spot on. Boxing at that level won't interest the BBC but the same goes for ther sports so you can see where he's coming from with that.

    Though the point brought up on the amount spent on F1 was a good response definitely.

    Are we going to need some more success in the olympics to get the bbc back involved?

    Cant help but think if Anthony Joshua wins Gold he will be the hottest ticket in the sport.
