    Quite right. I've emailed Sky about it and suggest that anyone who hasn't already done so starts typing.

    Enough people do it then they will have to take note. Providing everyone boycotts it.

    Totally agree.

    If you go back five years, he had Hatton, Calzaghe and plenty of others packing out arena's up and down the country for peanuts whilst he was making a **** load of money.

    Now those guys have realised that they are indeed world class and can make decent money elsewhere on a bigger stage, he is ****ed. Because he refuses to 'take a punt' on someone, preferring to pad them out with bums and having them lose their sharpness before being exposed at the highest level.

    I didn't fork out for Hatton-Lazcano, which I thought was just about the nadir of PPV on Sky, so I ain't paying for this puddle of **** which brings things to unimagined depths of awfulness.

    Warren and SKY can go **** themselves.

    The Khan fight is an absolute joke, his opponents a 19-0 padded record, his last fight was against 10-0 fighter and he got away with a SD win. Has anyone got any knowledge of the Prescott, I know I sure as f### don't.
