    all she wrote.

    There's only one card in the UK (Merseyside) and it's...um...OK to be perfectly honest I don't know a single name on there. A bunch of guys with under five fights or over twenty losses. I highly doubt it's even on local TV.

    Top show today. Mark Breland makes me laugh. 6'2", 10 stone wet through and as softly spoken as they come. You'd never think he'd be any good at fighting, looking at him.

    I know he's proof of never judging a book by it's cover...what a great fighter. The way he was slipping shots and landing bombs was top class....i agreed with Brian Kenny Paul Williams resembles his style for me.

    Noticed Sweet Pea's gained a fair bit of weight since his triumph :lol:

    It was a very good show. Bogere was the highlight for me though! (as you can see by my avatar :yep)

    :good
    Yeah it's still not the same without Buncey on a thursday and the big fight's on a saturday night but Espn have done a bit more in this first week then i really expected them to...so i'm optimistic atm that they may add some more boxing bit by bit...lets hope so :D
