There are times when I fucking hate boxing in Britain.

Fixed.

I wouldn't send a boxer to Italy/Germany/Washington State.

Right now I'd put them above Britain.

True.It's getting to the point were fighters won't come over and we Really don't want to go back to Europeantitle fights being top of the bill.At least Johnny Nelson looks embarrassed by it all.

Terrible , wouldn't happen in UK , oh wait a minute..

Very good interview by Beltrand.

He was so pissed off he wasn't even bothered about talk of a rematch. Got to feel for him, comes all the way over, boxes his heart out and gets robbed by the judges.

Toe the  skysports party line or your out ? Johhny Nelson said Burns never won the fight.The fact all of them thought different , but came out with politicians answers about a draw makes me yearn for the days of Sportsnight and Harry Carpenter.
I am sure a different view would have been given.

[PaulWinch again]

Burns was courageous to keep fighting, but Beltran won that fight definitely. So many judges are desperately poor and it's a shame for the sport.

[ADVILLAFAN]

Beltrand definitely should have won that fight.

Just received a Tweet from BoxNation apparently Dean Powell has died today:
@boxnationtv We are deeply saddened and shocked to learn of the loss of our close friend and colleague Dean Powell.

Hadn't heard anything about this, anyone know how, when etc!

Anyone watching the boxing on Chanel 5 tonight ?
Or maybe staying up even later for Floyd ?

[taylorsworkrate]

I think BoxNation has a bloody cheek.

To charge £10 a month, but to fail to provide an HD channel isn't really on

Both,the Floyd bill is one of the best for a long time.
The wife has been told not to expect me out of bed before 11 in the morning.
