    You've changed your tune from last week then rob.

    He seemed to think the email from "big mark" was sent from Spain due to it ending with Adios but surley he would assume thats because he himself always says it on here.....or do we have an imposter on ESB lol ;)

    Great show. Best boxing show in Britain. Covers pretty much everything, regardless of TV networks or promotional differences. You'd never see Sky Sports News running interviews with Haye or Calzaghe, yet Setanta have no problem extensively previewing the likes of Khan and Arthur/Cook (on Sky PPV). Brilliant attitude, Buncey.

    This is what boxing needs. There's way too much in-bickering in boxing - everyone in it for themselves attitude. Well, guess what? While everyone ****s about looking after their own house, the reputation of the sport plummets lower and lower.

    You can watch it online on the Setanta website. They have a live feed of Setanta Sports news (not that I remembered to :patsch )

    He was sat there with Mitchell and the presenter (whatsisname) when he read your email out Jeff, I cant remember exactly what they said but I remember Kev saying something like- Good on Amir for doing it as he's only 21, others have had to do it the hard way by going up through the levels whereas he's managed to jump right to the top- but I think Frank has given him very strict instructions before he went on air coz you can tell he was dying to slate Amir, and buncey said something like- this is not a king kong v godzilla match up which is kinda what its being made out to be and the winner doesnt get to cut of their opponents head and take it home and eat it- ......or something to that effect (seriously by the way lol) but I cant remember if that was right after your email was read out or right before but im pretty sure it was straight after. You can tell the hands are kinda tied up with what they can and cannot say but im glad someone actually questioned this PPV farce.

    First time I have seen the show - I will definitely be tuning in next week.

    What I enjoyed about the show was the willingness to talk about difficult subjects such as bogus titles and the fact that this show should not be on PPV etc etc.

    Keep it up :good

    It's what makes it so enjoyable, normally the only people willing to tell it like it is in boxing is us guys with no influence on the internet.
    Bunce's show is willing to do it on a major satellite tv channel, and if they want to be the 'Home of Boxing' it's exactly what they should be doing.

    One question for yourself Steve if you happen to be reading, what is the story with Setanta's deal with Fight Academy ?, Clinton Woods is the only tv worthy fighter they have left(they don't even have regular cards anymore) and he mightn't even continue fighting.
