    Buncey,

    Lead from the front mate - it seems EVERY journalist / interviewer asks Froch about Calzaghe.

    Froch knows a lot of other stuff you could have a field day with.

    Ask him how Darren Barker knew that Kessler was going to fight Calzaghe with a broken hand, after Barker sparred him.

    Or that Eric Teymour, Tatevosyan, Brian Magee have all fought / sparred Kessler and Froch and they all picked Froch if it was to come off.

    Ive read it on boxrec and i want to hear him confirm it all.

    24/7 Bunce on its own dedicated channel LIVE and unedited.

    I'd pay £10 a month for that no question, love it :D:D:D

    Easy to say Decebal but it's different when someone is put on the spot. Froch used the SAS tactics of Speed, Aggression and Surprise, rapidly changing from a docile cobra to a hissing and spitting one with his hood flared up.

    :lol:

    He might be an SAS-type in the ring, but it takes a brave man indeed to take on Bunce in an argument, live on TV. Froch was a cool cookie, but Bunce wiped the floor with him without even trying...even having been put on the spot.;)

    Cleverly beats woods on Points Woods***
    Paul Smith beat Dodson on points***
    Brook edges Jennings***
    Witter beats Hatton on points***

    I would say these 4 are of the 6 buncey disagrees with

    What I don't understand is why Bunce et co. didn't ask Froch why/how he thought he'd beat Taylor. They kind of took it as a given...very strange.:huh...and then they spoke about what would happen AFTER he beats Taylor...:patsch

    Who do you dislike the most Decebal? - Bunce or Froch?

    Well, let me put it this way...I was kind of hoping Froch would lose it with Bunce in there and rough him up a bit, live on Setanta...now THAT would have been a result in my book!:lol:

    :D

    Seriously, I think Froch is clearly better for boxing as a boxer than Bunce is for boxing as a commentator. Everyone knows my reasons for disliking both...but I'd take Froch's side in a street fight.:p

    Anyway...enough about that...hopefully, if there is a next time, Bunce will do a competent job of asking some pertinent questions during a 10 minute interview with Froch.

    I'm a little suprised at the haters on here (suppose it's Britain though). Yes, i thought this weeks show was a little dissapointing re going on about Joe C, Froch ddn't seem too happy but he is supposed to be very intelligient, he could have imposed his will to talk abut Taylor e.t.c. Buncey isn't perfect (who is?) but i like to hear the man talk a damn sight more than most other boxing pundits. Is he supposed to say Khan has the chin of a ten year old and never get to talk to anyone related ever again?(his chin would belong to a 15year old at least, just making my point). Actually got £20 on an AK victory.


    Support the show and give constructive criticism fellas, best we gonna get and I for one like it as it is, wish it was 2 hours though.

    What makes you think Bunce cares about what we think about him or his show? If you think he does, you are naive. Nothing to do with hating. Plenty of people have given plenty of constructive criticism, as well as enthousiastic praise. It made no difference...none. It was completely ignored. Why should it make any difference? "If you don't like the show, don't watch it", is the mantra. There's plenty of punters who think Bunce is the best thing since sliced bread, and Bunce panders to them very successfully, it seems. I don't usually watch the show, but I thought on this occasion I'd get to hear a couple of things from Froch about Taylor...but I was wrong. There would have been a lot to talk about...Oh, well...

    BTW..."the haters" on here are no worse than the toadys. Can you imagine any other professional boxing commentator spending 10 minutes with Froch and not asking him something about Taylor and their upcoming fight and his views on the top players in the division and his plans were he to beat Taylor? I can't. I guess that makes me a hater, eh?:roll:

    You make good points my friend. I myself acknowledged that i thought Buncey was poor in this show (my keyboard is past Jones in near retirement, some letters wll be missing). I hope i don't appear as if i am all up his arse, just tink that he is the best that we have. IMO he balances things fairly well, everyne is never going to be happy all of the time.

    He's the best we have?:huh At what, exactly? He's the best we have at pandering to the lowest common denominator "casual fan" type, who's much more interesting in all the latest celebrity gossip, scandal and banter than in boxing, I'll give you that. Not my cup of tea, but that's OK, doesn't have to be. My reasons for disliking the guy aren't even to do with that, but with the kind of man he is...

    ...anyway, enough about that. I promise not be drawn into this subject from now on.:good
