Their post fight reports and articles are a JOKE! The boxing writers there who usually write the report after the fights, clearly have no understanding of boxing AT ALL. One recent example is that the day floyd was arrested, the headline was ''US BOXER JAILED ON BATTERY CHARGES'' i found it quite amusing that they refer to floyd as US BOXER, not deeming him famous enough to use his name! But today took the biscuit aswel. Im reading the report on hopkins/pascal (i saw the fight and clearly thought hopkins won). And they come out with "Bernard Hopkins has failed in his bid to become the oldest boxer to hold a major world title after his bout with Jean Pascal ended in a technical draw" Technical draw atsch Its quite embarrassing that the BBC have so little intrest in boxing nowadays they cant even be bothered to get guys who know a bit about it to report on it atsch [url]http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/9302494.stm[/url]
There is hardly any boxing on the BBC TV anymore they used to have some great fights. Mike Costello is a good commentator on the radio though. He did a great commentary on the Froch fight when he came back to win.
