  2. No, you got the date right. He beat Delroy Spencer on points.

    how come sky didnt show the fight, i was looking forward to seeing it all week, it was on the undercard of the sky card right?
     
  4. It was on the undercard of the Sky fight. I've been told it wasn't the most entertaining fight. I was supposed to go last night but a mate didn't come through with the ticket, I would've been able to give you a much better account of what the fight was like if he wasn't such a lazy arsed sod.

    As a dedicated Sports channel why does the boxing show have to last 2 hours only, other sports don't get treated in the same way

    At midnight why is there a rush to switch the broadcast?

    Very good question. They could easily make it a three hour show. Perhaps we should consider organising a petition.

    I would fancy Sexton over Edwards and any other domestic flyweight.

    Hopefully he will have a euro title next year

    they always finish the show at like 11:45 why not let us see the full fights and more a 3 hour show would be excellant
     
  11. I've no idea. It's not like they show a lot of other live sport after midnight, it's usually repeats of egg chasing or sailing. They should at least have it on the red button facility.

    i think that they may have sown it if sykes/crolla wasn't such a good fight!.
    still though, they should still give a run-down of the whole bill shouldn't they?.It is a boxing programme right?
    sky are a bit useless with the continual "advert break between rounds" thing,you can't see what the corners are saying and it really winds me up.it will annoy potential new fans to the sport i'm sure,aswell as taking our subscriptions to show half a show,,,sort it out please sky?@?!@?"@?@!

    the whole argument about adverts between rounds needs to stop, don't you get that's why they see much more boxing in the states.

    i know,it's just a personal quibble,,and the states is massive compared to us,hence the viewing potential is far more lucrative.
