Which card are you watching next Saturday (25th)?

Copied and pasted from CHB.

Assuming you have access to Boxnation, Sky Sports and Channel 5, which card are you planning on watching live next Saturday?

There is slight overlap between the cards, Boxnation's Liverpool show comes on air at 7pm, Sky's Hull show at 7.30pm and the Channel 5 Monte Carlo card airs at 8.30pm. There is also a doubt as to what Channel 5 will show live in their two and a half hour show.

******'s Boxnation card looks by far the weakest IMO, and if you're not from Liverpool and don't have an active interest in a particular fighter, i can't see too many tuning into this one. It started off well with a Butler genuine world title shot, a decent looking domestic cruiserweight bout and various other bouts, but it really has fallen apart - i think pretty much every fight initially announced has fallen apart bar Satchell's European title shot. Liam Smith has a poor looking opponent. Thomas Stalker's opponent has changed - although some may think this is now a better / more interesting ans significant fight. Butler's fight now looks a tune up. Eubank Jr snow doesn't have an opponent. Not sure who Matthews was supposed to fight, but Dingsdale (despite his decent effort against Stephen Ormond) doesn't really make you not want to miss it. It is certainly a deep card, but as it stands i would rate it at around 5/10.

The Sky card looks pretty good actually, surprisingly good. Luke Campbell is in a relatively interesting fight. This Buzuela guy is known around here, and certainly will be to the Hull crowd, and he probably will come to win, but most would say Coyle made him look better than he actually is when they fought and Luke really should deal with him. Still not a bad little fight though. Coyle-Katsidis looks more competitive than it should be. A lot will say Kats shouldn't be fighting anymore for his own good and that he is shot now, but if he has anything left, he will give Coyle some questions with Coyle looking particularly vulnerable to the body shot. Gavin McDonnell fights Stuart Hall victim :hey Vusi Malinga in a WBA type super-bantamweight trinket belt in what looks like a decent, competitive 50/50 - the bookies certainly think so. It looks like Gamal Yafai is off this card, injured, but his scheduled opponent remains on it and will now face Samir Mounemeine after stopping apparent prospect Liam Hanharan last time out. 7/10 card for me.

The Channel 5 one looks particularly good as well. Apart from the Hall-Caballero fight, it is hard to gauge what C5 will show that night. They air from 8.30-11pm. I would imagine they would also show Murray-Spada live and highlights of Blackwell's fight with Khomitsky, assuming he wins, but there is also a WBA Minimumweight bout and a very good light heavyweight bout between unbeaten light heavyweight contenders Ryno Liebenberg and Elveider Alvarez - the latter has featured on numerous Sky Sports Canadian cards and is highly rated so will be known by many over here. The bookies have this close as well, with Alvarez the slight favourite. Would probably rate this 7.5/10, but obviously depends on what they show.

Because of start time, i reckon i will watch the Hull card and Sky+ the C5 one, then depending on reviews on here etc, might catch the Liverpool one on delay on the Sunday. But a really good night of boxing - just a shame one wasn't on last night when there was nowt on.

 

Sky. Coyle/Kats should be a war while it lasts.

 

Flicking between Sky Sports and channel 5, Warens card is rotten though so won't be venturing onto boxnation much.

 

Boxnation as I like Buncey's banter.

 

Gonna watch Sky sports record box nation and hopefully get 5 of demand

 

Gonna Tivo all 3 but flick between Channel 5 and Sky Sports on the night.

 

Sky but will flick to c5. The liverpool show looked decent when it was announced but now it's pretty crap, although to be fair the same could have been said of the merseybeat show and the actual fights werent as bad as they could have been

 

I'll watch the Sky card, switch to watch all 3 minutes of eubank's fight, then go between sky and C5 to see how Murrays doing.

 

to be honest all 3 are ****

 

I will switch between sky and channel 5

 

:shock: he does my head in

Not sure what to watch

 

Skysports on the IPad, C5 on the telly. Unsubscribed fro BN, just not worth the money anymore for me

 

Probably flick between C5 and Sky as - as someone else said - watch ******'s card on Sunday. The cards might not ready well, but that's not to say the fights won't be entertaining

 

I'll watch the C5 as I've only got freeview in the halls I'm at for uni(without laptop). Last couple of cards I've watched in the library and it shut for the main event, which was pretty bloody annoying.

 

Sky live, record 5 and watch after and fast forward through the inevitable bumpf. Will watch ******s card later if it sounds like there has been a few decent scraps, if not probably give it a miss altogether
