    All the decent 50-50s have been postponed, or have we just been spoilt recently!

    Setanta have not even shown a fight this month!!!

    And they've put my subscription back up to £10. I told them 3 months back I was cancelling and they gave me 3 months at £5 a month

    If all had gone according to plan we'd have seen Alex Arthur v Joan Guzman last weekend and Barry Morrison v David Barnes tonight - both postponed!

    Been really looking forward to the Hennessy bill tomorrow but can't keep up with all the changes - hopefully it will still turn out to be a decent night of boxing.

    At least the sun has been shining this week - back in little summer clothes so I'm happy!

    I think the Hennessy bill has been ruined really with Froch being given the merry go round and Fewkes pulling out.

    Looks like the great Adnan Amar will receive much more publicity.

    *****.

    Yep. May is looking like a huge let down. June looks poor as well.

    There are a couple of decent match ups in the pipeline for June -

    John Simpson v Paul Appleby on the 6th

    Alex Arthur v Joan Guzman on the 14th - if it goes ahead!

    We have had a few good fights this month and there are some more to come but they still do not rate in the top line bracket. I love domestic action :hey and can not wait to see Appleby and Simpson and then the AAA affair (mainly to see the rip Dunky gets). :yep

    Yep, absolutely gutted about the Froch card especially. Finally get some decent action that isn't Amir Khan on UK domestic TV and the card gets decimated, I am going to be in the UK this weekend too. ITV probably won't touch boxing with a barge pole now...

    Inkin pulling out was bad enough, but Fewkes/Murray I was really excited about :-(

    Forget Sultana, get a digibox and a satellite dish pointing at 13E and 19.2E. Plenty of boxing from Germany for free.
