    there is a wider issue alright about how SKY hands out dates.

    Sure the big boys needs some security so that they can invest, but there also needs to be some flexibility as well.

    the likes of VIP, HKP etc should also be able to get a slice of the pie with a SKY wildcard slot and they bring a package forwaard and pitch to SKY

    "I personally can't stand Spencer Fearon"

    I've tried to like him "And give him the benefit of the doubt", but i somewhat just find him completely irritating and annoying.

    "I'm not trying to say he's a bad person, i just don't like him"

    I would rather have Steve Bunce back on sky! But that's not going to happen.

    Because he is the King of self promotion Sky should use him as a pundit as well as put on his shows.

    Look at last Spencer's last show with 50-50 fights. VIP/Goodwin/Miranda's have nowhere near the quality of these fights. I don't care if there's 15 fights on the bill. Neither do most Saturday Fight Night shows come to that. Hattons were on the same night last time and their show was way worse. A poll here said as much.

    And Billy just because you wouldn't let Choi within a 20 mile radius of Burns doesn't mean he's not a headline fighter. The support he got at the York Hall last time was amazing. And he was also the most popular fighter in the Prizefighter he was in.

    All the fights are competitive. You don't know who is going to win. I know the concept is so strange.

    Keep dreaming you dirty Sweaty. So Choi isn't better than the dead men Burns is defending against? Choi's win versus Asiku better than any Burns win bar Martinez.

    Don't fall for the bait mate. you could have a thread "Ricky Burns vs Floyd Mayweather" and Nelson would back his man.

    Burns is too big for Choi. John Simpson is not though. I think Choi would knock Simpson out.

    I think that should suffice for now.
