    You had an article in last weeks edition? I usually only read it two out of every four weeks so I missed that one.

    I'm affraid it will never happen. The PC brigade is wining the war in this country. The BMA have also been extremly influencal in stamping out the sport

    There's one I did similar to this which is on the Bunce site. Titled 'Bring Back Buncey and Live Boxing'. It was initially aimed at tying both into one petition:good.

    :lol:I know, there are some prize nutters on the general! I didn't even respond to it due to it being quite possibly one of the most daft things I've ever read on there:patsch:roll:.

    Whatever next?:lol:

    EDIT: Stew, I hope it's something to do with getting the Ring title recognised properly as the lineal world boxing title through all of the main media outlets:yep.

    Sounds like a great idea. I'll support it however I can, in a way that preferebly doesn't interfere with my laziness.

    I also think BN have been influenced by the success and support of the Bring Back Bunce campaign. They've realised that the boxing community have a massive voice and can achieve things for the good of the sport if they want to.

    Like Gaz said, I'd be happy with just Brit/Euro title fights on the BBC, anything more would be seen as a bonus.

    We would all love to see this happen and hopefully the BBC do show some sort of boxing on the tv. It would have been great if they got behind Haye and his Hayemaker fighters and Froch when he had no UK tv deal. I hope something good comes from this.:good
