Boxing 2025

[Rory]

I thought Amir Khan spoke very well today, when reflecting on his personal and professional interactions with Ricky.

Haven't seen that. Got a link?

It was shown quite a few times on BBC News yesterday. This was the only snippet I could find.

Thanks BV.

Reading the Boxing News tributes to Ricky Hatton makes you realise how many good writers the sport has enjoyed. I wish football could say the same.

And a good headliner tonight.

[dave.woodhall]

Anyone bothering tonight?

[Drummond]

Think that was a 'No' Dave.

I've not watched boxing for ages. I just never know where it's showing, without having to PPV (which I'm not doing) anymore. I used to really enjoy Friday Fight Night on Sky as it was a scheduled thing that allowed me to keep an eye on different fighters in different divisions.

I know what you mean. Everything's on different channels now so you lose track but there are some good small hall shows on YouTube at the weekend which are worth watching.

Meanwhile tonight Dave Allen, a heavyweight who's at best fringe British title level, is headlining an arena show for no discernible reason.

[dave.woodhall]

Ihe inevitable question - will anyone be watching tonight?

Ihe inevitable question - will anyone be watching tonight?

Absolutely

[dave.woodhall]

And so far it's a stormer.

[Gareth]

It’s very very even! 

These shorts would be ideal for footballers now long throws are back trendy

[Gareth]

10th round is the round of the year

[dave.woodhall]

And an absolutely appalling stoppage.

[Gareth]

Way too early, fight deserved that last 4/5 mins to play out

[tomd2103]

Only listened to it on the radio and they seemed to feel it was a fair stoppage?

[dave.woodhall]

i thought one of them also said something about Howard Foster having a track record, but boxing commentators rarely call out bad decisions.
