    Another good show over the weekend which Sky overlooked, with JCC Jr - Lee, Marroquin-Santiago & Saucedo-Harrison being 3 really good fights on the card.

    Haye-Chisora, Povetkin-Rahman, Adrian Broner etc all to come next month... ****ing superb.

    Boxnation is great, I don't see how anyone can complain with what it offers.

    Have they changed that awful background colour on Bunce's show yet?

    They have changed the red. Now it is white-ish fight posters. Not perfect, but I think an improvement.

    BoxNation are doing OK, but it seems that F.W. can't keep up 4 domestic cards a month as they were initially talking about. Not the end of the world as long as they deliver on the international stuff.

    Oh yeah, and I find it ****ing annoying that they want to keep an advert for Haye/Chisora permanently on-screen. They lose points for that! Someone needs a Del Boy slap for that nonsense!

    Inspite of the doom & gloom surrounding them not picking up a few cards recently, gotta add this as another good weekend; Quillin-N'dam, Garcia-Morales being the best 2 fights on the card... Alexander-Bailey was terrible.

    Forgot to do the manual record thing on sky+ and watched it the next morning, luckily the Garcia fight ended with 3 mins of the recording left. Wont make that mistake again.

    Well done BN.

    Turned out to be an OK/fairly good card.

    Two of those fights would have been stopped in the UK I suspect.

    Yeah. Bit pissed off not having any british fights for 2/3 weeks on the bounce though. I know they just had a big card on, but still. That said, the american show they picked up was a cracking night.

    I also want to say just how good Boxnation's line-up is between now and Christmas.

    If you consider that it is £30 for Oct, Nov and Dec and then look at the amount of shows and fights are in that period it really is superb value, nothing else comes close in my opinion!

    :happy
