I can't believe so many of you guys watch Fash FC. It's awful. At best they're a second rate pub team with a manager who should have been carted away by the men in white coats years ago. That makes them identical to every sunday league team in the country.

There can be only two reasons for watching this rubbish.
1) Bubbles from Bo Selecta (I must confess, her real name escapes me).
2) Your remote control has either been lost or is too far away to be easily reached.

Having said that, if i ever see Tony Charles in the street i'm going to knock him spark out on principle.

In case you don't have one of the best UK fights in recent times on tape or even DVD. 8)

Midnight tonight.

There was a martial arts programme on Bravo in the early hours that covered a bit of boxing. It featured a fight in America that was a tribute bout after 9/11. Anyway at the end of the fight when the decision was announced the winning boxer went to shake the losers hand and then out of nowhere the loser chinned him with a big right hand and dropped him. The guy ended up getting 4 months inside for this stupidity and the guy who won the fight was never the same again, he has never mentally got over it. Can't remember the boxers names though, did anybody see it?

James Butler and Richard Grant.

There's another topic that has mentioned it.

How did they do it? Was it Jim and Reg, was it the entire ITV show or was it Probox?

Gutted now!, I have the original ITV Benn vs Eubank 2 on DVD (with the Best of Enemies show and an excellent aftermath show).

I only have the Probox version of Benn vs Eubank 1.

Will know for next time though.

I was lucky enough to be at both the Benn V Eubank fights, two great nights I will never forget. The atmosphere was incredible at both fights but the first one was something very special.

I still miss the excitment of a Nigel Benn fight.
