    Did anyone hear his comments last night about Framptons old opponent Gonzales who got murdered? Couldn't believe he said live on BT that the guy was found murdered shot in head naked in the back of a van with 3 other men. I thought it was totally inappropriate and not the image you want to show to try and get new fans of the sport. Would not be surprised if BT binned him after that. What are people's thoughts ?

    There was no need for him to come out with the inner details.

    If he was a straight shooter he wouldn' claim he had Frampton winning by 5 rounds. Guys a loudmouth Arsenal who acts like a hard man. I remember pulling him once years ago at a Scott Harrison bill for talking **** and he couldn't even look at me let alone reply.

    Yep. A very brash, annoying man.

    I remember when he nearly shat a brick when Hopkins put it on him.

    Really can't believe anyone would be offended by Bunce's comments.

    People need to grow up.

    If you cannot handle the truth i suggest the easily offended start watching tennis

    Lol. Murders happen. Gruesome ****ed up murders happen. Since when were facts ever offensive? I'd rather know the facts than not. Lack of facts leads to fake news, misunderstandings, miscommunications and lies.

    Facts ftw.

    Regardless of what Bunce said i don't think he's up to the job. He comes across as too much of a journalist and always has done. It's all about me me me with Bunce, ''Listen to what i've got to say, don't listen to anyone else just listen to me''.

    I have had some really bad nights out, got drunk and done some terrible things (and some fat things) but it's never gone that wrong, I hope they didn't Snapchat that.

    Personally I can handle the facts no problem but the one big thing that holds boxing back from being a massive sport week in week out is it's image, and comments like that when they were are not needed do not help.

    Boxing is booming and a comment by Steve Bunce will not stop 1 single person watching it...

    Amen....Boxing is littered with stories of violence and murder .

    A lot of fighters come from the dirt ,the poorest people in the most dangerous parts of the most violent cities on Earth

    Didn't find it offensive in the slightest tbh.

    As for Bunce I can take him or leave him.
