Was a khan fan Previously, he's coming across as a complete bullroot more often though. He needs some manners beat into him. Hopefully Peterson gives him a good hiding

Ringside is the boxing equivalent of Match of the Day - it's not meant for the hardcore boxing freaks, just the general public

Eddie's using Khan's name again i see. If he wants to throw him in against a world-level LWW why not McCloskey? ( i don't think Dudey is anywhere near world level, but he & his promoter seem to)

McCloskey shouldn't be rated higher than Murray, not given recent bouts

ordinary ss - khan's got a three fight deal with them

if Burns was too big for the weight, and Broner looks like he can definitely move up, then the fight will happen, if Burns can get a belt again anyway beforehand.

it's this simple - i've heard four women talking about tyson fury. i doubt they'd know ricky hatton if he rode into the room hanging out the back of david haye. even though most have sky, most don't watch sky sports

Rogie?

he should have had a warmup in Ireland, keep his profile up

this is a real winnable fight for woodhouse.

i heard mccloskey was angling for malignaggi last week - he's not going to get another shot by the looks of it

will watch this via other methods in HD, unless BN bring a hd version out before then

Price, and any other boxer not yet at British titlist level should welcome terrestrial exposure, if only for a fight or two. Price in particular, given his inactivity, has a bit of catching up to do.

i'd say it'll be a keep-busy and no more

any of the irish posters catch this last night? great show. Unreal that Joe Ward is only 18! dispatched Kenny Egan easily enough. Hopefully he's in no immediate rush to turn pro, a real medal prospect. Nolan-Joyce was a cracker as well, close fight. This was on RTE, at primetime on a Friday night, a...

tyson fury fights always trend on twitter when he's on. doesn't seem to happen a lot with anybody else. only way to make stars is by showing it for free, at primetime. if the man on the street doesn't know who froch is, they certainly don't know anything about burns or cleverly

who cares who the biggest promoter is? the best is Mick Hennessey at the moment, for the simple truth that he has got boxing on free tv. The only boxers who are going to become stars are the ones who will be shown on terrestrial, or the olympians, although warren has managed to make a hames of degal...

if they had fought for a vacant title, fair enough. but being handed a belt is a serious embarrassment.

i doubt mayweather generates more than manny. if this is the case, and he is now demanding more after agreeing 50-50 with MP in a phone conversation, then he never wanted it to happen

it'll make mccloskey a fortune. he sells out the oddysey in belfast, or near enough, with 11,000 capacity, no matter who he fights. strange that he's lined up for katsidis though

just going back to the original post, i don't see them as avoiding lee. it just seems the money isn't right, both murray & barker probably feel they deserve more for a risky fight. not that i know how much they've been offered, but a second defeat in a row for barker would be costly enough, and ...

been a long while since the sturm fight, he should have had a warmup before now. fighter's inactivity is frustrating to say the least

going to be a lot on that night, with fury rumoured to fight in belfast as well.

i'll miss it all, on a stag that weekend

it's definitely a step in the right direction, haven't been blown away by Brook as of yet but not doubting his ability. A really convincing win, maybe ko over hatton and i'd say it'll be a bauble fight next

Frampton all the way
