    DeGale back to his old self.

    looking back at his last fight and some training footage, hes look good, not many faster middleweights.

    Danish people earn double what we do, and can buy a house and car for half the price.

    However a pint will set you back £8

    exaactly a detailed profile of the fighters, or a 24/7. im sick of the same old ****.

    seriously i watched UFC 100 last week. the way its put together, the commentary, the production is fantastic, shame the actual fighing is bull****.

    the 'HBO' countdown shows cost a £1m so i think there is no chance of it happening. If it ever did it will probably be on PPV.

    I'll echo what Rob and others have said - the whole show looked tired and forced. No-one looked or sounded as though they believed a word they were saying.

    Dave Clark is awful, just awful and Adam Smith would saying absolutely anything (in that horrible shrill of his mind) for a pound note and a leg up that corporate ladder.

    Jim Watt must feel like George Clooney when he was doing **** like Return of the Killer Tomatoes.

    I think you are confusing HBO countdown with HBO 24/7

    hbo 24/7 is really a standard countdown show extended to 3/4 episodes. so if sky were to do a countdown show they would have to spend around £200,000-£300,000, which is still way too much for them. with such an investment it would make sence for sky to do the crappy cheap version because the average person would have already chosen to buy the PPV or not.
